Module 2: Flip Flops and Op Amps Flashcards
The output of a sequential circuit is determined by what?
Inputs given
present state (previous ins/outs)
Memory
What is feedback?
Outputs becoming part of the new inputs
Combinational logic circuits use what type of elements?
Decision elements
Sequential logic circuits use what type of elements?
Memory elements
What are the 2 types of sequential logic circuits?
Asynchronous and Synchronous (analyzed differently for valid outputs)
In which operation do the outputs respond to the inputs immediately and eventually reach a stable state?
Asynchronous
In synchronous operation when does the output change?
Only at specific times determined by an input control signal called a CLOCK/ENABLE
What is the reaction of a synchronous circuit to its control signal?
Static or Dynamic
When does static allow the circuit to change state?
Whenever it is high (level triggered)
When does dynamic allow the circuit to change state?
When control signal itself is changing from one level to the other
In a synchronous system, are the inputs allowed to change while the output is changing state?
No
What is the building of sequential logic
Storage elements
A bubble on a clock pulse represents what?
Negative edge trigger
An ENABLE control signal to flip flop is called what?
Latch
An SR with an enable is called?
Gated latch
What is a flip flop?
A device with 2 stable states, set (1) and reset (0)
