Abstract
A sequence generator for producing a sequence of binary numbers, comprises a counter, a priority encoder which encodes the contents of the counter, a memory addressed by the output of the encoder, an output register, and a logic circuit for modifying the contents of the output register as specified by the output from the memory. The generated sequence can readily be modified by changing the contents of the memory. The flexibility of the generator can be increased further by using as the counter a count register which is incremented by values from a further memory also addressed by the output of the encoder.
