Question: One of the major drawbacks to the use of asynchronous counters is that:

Options

A : low-frequency applications are limited because of internal propagation delays

B : high-frequency applications are limited because of internal propagation delays

C : Asynchronous counters do not have major drawbacks and are suitable for use in high- and low-frequency counting applications.

D : Asynchronous counters do not have propagation delays, which limits their use in high-frequency applications.
