From: Avier on 2 Jan 2010 13:00 suppose if am having a clock frequency of 60 Mhz and i want to invert every third bit that is inverting signal at 20Mhz . what could be the best solution in terms of least number of storage bits . i think a counter can be used but how many storage bits we will count it? any other solutions

What other hardware? What help does knowing the clock frequency provide?

There is about a zillion of ways for making N-state flip-flop, i.e. flip-flap-flop for 3 states, flip-flap-flup-flop for 4 states, etc. Vladimir Vassilevsky DSP and Mixed Signal Design Consultant http://www.abvolt.com
