ABSTRACT:
A counter cell for counting either up or down by one or two includes a multiplexer section, an increment/decrement section, and a carry section. The multiplexer section is responsive to control signals and input carry signals for generating a count signal which determines the counting by one or two. The increment/decrement section is responsive to count signal and an increment strobe signal for generating an incremented output signal and a decremented output signal. The carry section is responsive to the increment/decrement section and the input carry signals for generating a carryout-by-one signal and a carryout-by-two signal. A number of these counter cells are arrayed to form an N-bit counter.
