Module 3- Lecture 1

The document discusses sequential logic circuits, which are characterized by outputs that depend on both present inputs and past outputs. It details types of sequential circuits, specifically synchronous and asynchronous, and introduces flip-flops as memory elements in clocked sequential circuits. The document also includes truth tables and operational modes for SR flip-flops using both NOR and NAND gates.

SEQUENTIAL LOGIC CIRCUITS


INTRODUCTION

Block diagram of a sequential circuit


 Output at any instant of time depend not only on the present inputs but
also on the past outputs are called sequential circuit.
 Output are fed back to the input side
 It consist of combinational circuit to which memory element connected to
form feedback path
TYPES OF SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS
Synchronous- knowledge of its signals
at discrete instants of time
Asynchronous-depends upon the input
signals at any instant of time

Synchronous sequential circuit


 Most frequently encountered in practice
Synchronization is achieved by a timing
device called a clock generator (Clk), provides Clocked sequential circuit
clock signal
use clock pulses to control storage elements ar
e called clocked sequential circuits
feasible because it manifest stability problems
FLIP FLOPS

Memory elements used in clocked sequential circuits are called flip-flops.

Store one bit of information

A flip-flop circuit maintain a binary state until directed by an input signal

Truth Table

Flip-flop has two outputs, Q and Q′, and two inputs, set and reset.
Flipflop is sometimes called a direct-coupled SR flip-flop or SR latch.
OPERATION
 In general NOR gate, output = 0 if any input is 1;output = 1 only when
all inputs are 0.

S = 0, R = 0; normal resting state of the circuit and it has no effect of the


output states.

S = 1, R = 0; this will set Q to 1, it works in SET mode operation.

Q and Q’ will remain in prior state. It works in HOLD (no change) mode
operation.

 S = 0, R = 1; this will reset Q to 0, it works in RESET mode operation.

S = 1, R = 1; Q & Q’ = 0. This condition is undefined and avoided
