1 votes 1 votes $32768 = 2^{15} = {(2^3)}^5 = 8^5.$ Thus we need $5$ mod-8 counters as after every $8$ clock cycles the second cascaded counter gets an increment and after every $8 \times 8 = 64$ clock cycles the third cascaded counter gets an increment and so on. gatecse answered Aug 30, 2020 gatecse comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
