If a synchronous digital circuit's state transitions follow a Fibonacci sequence for clock cycles, which behavior is observed as clock frequency increases?

💡 Explanation

As clock frequency increases, the time to reach larger numbers in the Fibonacci sequence decreases, because the time per cycle shortens, leading to overflow occurrences sooner; therefore, increased time-to-overflow is not seen, rather the opposite, and the other options don't directly relate to the sequence length.
