Flip-flop types, their Conversion and Applications

Flip-flop is a circuit that maintains a state until directed by input to change the state. A basic flip-flop can be constructed using four-NAND or four-NOR gates.

Types of flip-flops:

  1. RS Flip Flop
  2. JK Flip Flop
  3. D Flip Flop
  4. T Flip Flop

Logic diagrams and truth tables of the different types of flip-flops are as follows:

S-R Flip Flop :

J-K Flip Flop:
D Flip Flop :

T Flip Flop :

flip_1


Steps To Convert from One FlipFlop to Other :

Let there be required flipflop to be constructed using sub-flipflop:

  1. Draw the truth table of the required flip-flop.
  2. Write the corresponding outputs of sub-flipflop to be used from the excitation table.
  3. Draw K-Maps using required flipflop inputs and obtain excitation functions for sub-flipflop inputs.
  4. Construct logic diagram according to the functions obtained.

An Introduction to Digital Logic Families

Image
  What is a Logic Family? In Digital Designs, our primary aim is to create an Integrated Circuit (IC). A Circuit configuration or arrangement of the circuit elements in a special manner will result in a particular Logic Family. What are the advantages of creating different Logic Families? Electrical Characteristics of the  IC will be identical. In other words, the different parameters like Noise Margin, Fan In, Fan Out etc will be identical. Different ICs belonging to the same logic families will be compatible with each other. Some Characteristics we consider for the selection of a particular Logic Family are: Supply voltage range  Speed of response  Power dissipation  Input and output logic levels  Current sourcing and sinking capability Fan-out  Noise margin The basic Classification of the Logic Families are as follows: Bipolar Devices MOS Devices Hybrid Devices  Bipolar Families: Diode Logic (DL) Resistor Transistor Logic (RTL) Diode Transistor Logic (DTL) Transistor- Transistor Log
