The Toggle Flip-flop

The Toggle Flip-flop is another type of bistable sequential logic circuit based around the previous clocked JK flip-flop circuit. The toggle flip-flop can be used as a

Conversion of Flip-flops

We have seen throughout this Electronics Tutorial section on Sequential Logic that a flip-flop will remain in one of its two stable states indefinitely until some form

The Shift Register

This sequential device loads the data present on its inputs and then moves or “shifts” it to its output once every clock cycle, hence the

The D-type Flip Flop

One of the main disadvantages of the basic SR NAND Gate Bistable circuit is that the indeterminate input condition of SET = “0” and RESET = “0”

Multivibrators

Individual Sequential Logic circuits can be used to build more complex circuits such as Multivibrators, Counters, Shift Registers, Latches and Memories. But for these types of circuits

The JK Flip Flop

The basic S-R NAND flip-flop circuit has many advantages and uses in sequential logic circuits but it suffers from two basic switching problems. 1. the

Sequential Logic Circuits

Unlike Combinational Logic circuits that change state depending upon the actual signals being applied to their inputs at that time, Sequential Logic circuits have some form of inherent “Memory”
