ABSTRACT:
A digital counter and method for counting are implemented which minimize fatigue-related failure in the storage element for the count value. The counting sequence is chosen such that the transitions within individual storage elements are the same for each element within a complete counting cycle. The invention extends to software or microcontroller implemented methods for counting, including encoding and decoding applications.
