12
Q

The input clock pulse is first felt by the first flip-flop. The effect is not felt by the second flip-flop immediately because of the delay through the first flip-flop.

Sequential circuit

28
Q

2 categories of sequential circuits

A
  • Asynchronous
  • Synchronous
29
Q

Output changes at discrete interval of time. It is a circuit based on an equal state time or a state time defined by external means such as clock.

A

Synchronous sequential circuit

30
Q

Output can be changed at any instant of time by changing the input. It is a circuit whose state time depends solely upon the internal logic circuit delays.

A

Asynchronous sequential circuit

31
Q

A circuit that changes from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1 when current is applied. It is one bit storage location

A

basic flip flop

32
Q

SR flip flop is also called

A

SR latch

33
Q

this circuit is used to overcome invalid state of the SR flip flop

A

clocked SR flip flop

34
Q

Modification of the clocked SR flip flop

A

D flip flop

35
Q

refers to a periodic signal where the ON and OFF times do not need to be the same

A

Clock signal

36
Q

Types of triggering

A
  • Level triggering
  • Edge triggering
37
Q

The circuit is only activated in whenever the clock pulse happens to be at any particular level

A

Level triggering

38
Q

Types of level triggering

A
  • Positive
  • Negative
39
Q

This transition or triggering either occurs from Logic High
to Logic Low or from Logic Low to Logic High

A

Edge triggering

40
Q

Types of edge triggering

  • Positive
  • Negative
41
Q

a device that selects between several analog ordigital input signals and forwards the selected input to a single output line.

A

multiplexer

42
Q

Multiplexer is also known as

A

data selector

43
Q

In multiplexer the selection is directed by a separate set of digital inputs known as

A

select lines

44
Q

It takes a single input signal and routes it to one of many output lines

A

demultiplexer

45
Q

Demultiplexer is also called as

A

data distributor

46
Q

is a multiple-input, multiple-output logic circuit that converts coded inputs into coded outputs, where the input and output codes are different.

47
Q

Types of decoders

A
  • Binary decoders
  • BCD to 7 segment decoders
  • Demultiplexers as decoders
48
Q

are devices that convert information from one format or code to another, typically for standardization, speed, secrecy, or compression.

A

encoder

49
Q

are sensors that detect position and speed by converting rotational mechanical displacements into electrical signals and processing those signals
