In order to check the CLR function of a counter, ________.
A:
apply the active level to the CLR input and check all of the Q outputs to see if they are all in their reset state
B:
ground the CLR input and check to be sure that all of the Q outputs are LOW
C:
connect the CLR input to Vcc and check to see if all of the Q outputs are HIGH
