Abstract
An updown counter up-counts binary data stored in respective flip-flops in an up-count mode, and down-counts the binary data stored in the respective flip-flops in a down-count mode. When a command for an up-count mode is applied by an up/down control signal, the binary data stored in the respective flip-flops is converted into a complement on two after converting it into a complement on one. When a command for a down-count mode is applied by an up/down control signal, the binary data stored in the respective flip-flops is converted into a complement on one after converting it into a complement on two. The converted data is used to rewrite the data stored in the respective flip-flops.
