  1. A shift counter comprising five flip-flops with an inverse feedback from the output of the MSB flip-flop to the input of the LSB flip-flops is a—
    1. Divide-by-32 counter
    2. Divide-by-10 counter
    3. Divide-by-5 counter
    4. Five-bit shift register
Correct Option: B

The required shift counter is called Johnson counter or twisted ring counter, since an inverse feedback from the output of the MSB flip-flop to the input of the LSB flip-flop is applied. Because counter comprising 5 flip-flops it means no number of stages will be 2n
i.e., 2 × 5 = 10
Therefore, the given counter is divide by 10 counter.
