Revision Notes

• When the
SET input is briefly taken to logic 0, the
Q output will become logic 1 and the

output will become logic 0.
• When the
RESET input is now briefly taken to logic 0,
Q will become logic 0 and the

output will become logic 1.

T ≈ R × C
- When input of gate X goes low the output of gate X goes high.
- This starts to charge capacitor C through resistor R and so makes the input of gate Y high.
- The output of gate Y goes low, which is fed back to gate X so keeping its output high.
- C charges through R until the input voltage to gate Y is below half of the supply voltage.
- The output of gate Y goes high, making output of gate X low, circuit resets.

T ≈ 2 × R × C
f = 1 / T
- Control input to first NAND gate goes high.
- Output of first NAND gate goes low, output of astable goes high.
- Capacitor discharges and charges in opposite direction.
- Until voltage at input to first NAND gate <+Vs/2.
- Output of astable switches state.
- Capacitor charges in opposite direction.
- Process repeats as long as control is high.
Contents

- S sets Q to 1
- R resets Q to 0
- Independent of the state of CK.
- On the rising edge of CK, Q is set to the logic state of D.
Contents
- Enables data to be outputted from data bus.
- Processor sets valid data onto data bus and then pulses CK high.
- Data captured and stored in latches.
- One flip-flop needed per bit.
Contents

• On the rising edge of each clock pulse, the data from a D-type flip-flop is stored in the next D-type flip-flop.
• This data transfer occurs all of the way along the shift register.
• Data from the output of the last flip-flop is lost.
• New data applied to the input of the first flip-flop is taken into the shift register.
Contents

To make a flip-flop toggle:-
-
S and
R are connected to 0
-
D is connected to

- The
D input is then always opposite to
Q- So toggling occurs on each successive clock pulse.

Contents

- D to

- All Resets joined together
- CK to previous Q for down counter and

for an up counter
- All resets joined together and connected to 0
Contents

- Only up-counters.
- AND gate output connected to reset.
- AND gate inputs connected to appropriate Q outputs.
- 5, Q0 & Q2

Commutative Laws:
A + B = B + A
A · B = B · A
Associative Laws:
A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C
A ·(B · C) = (A · B) · C
Distributive Law:
A · (B + C) = A · B + A · C
