We have dealt with combinational circuits (digital ccts without memory). Multivibrators circuits are mostly made up of both combinational circuits and memory elements. They include : - Mono-stables - Bistables - Astables Multivibrators
Bistables . Bistables: Devices which have two stable states(SET and RESET) They can retain either of these states indefinitely, making them useful as storage devices. Two categories of bistables : - the latch - the flip-flop Latches and Flip-flops differ, basically, in the way in which they are changed from one state from the other. Digital systems 1
Latch Latch ; A temporary memory devices which has two stable states. The latch can be an active-HIGH input S-R(SET-RESET) or an active-LOW input S-R(SET-RESET) as shown blow Digital systems 1
Active low Latch Digital systems 1 SET (output is high) condition RESET (output is low) condition
Active low Latch Digital systems 1 NO CHANGE and INVALID CONDITION

Active low Latch Digital systems 1 Example : The waveforms shown below are applied to the inputs of the active low latch. Assume initially that Q = 0, and determine the Q waveform

The gated Latch Digital systems 1 It has enable input ( EN or G) The inputs ,S and R, affects output only when EN is high Notice logic diagram and logic symbol for latch below Example : determine the Q output waveform
The D type bistable Digital systems 1 It has only one control input D(data) and enable input ( EN or G) The control input, D, affects output only when EN is high Notice logic diagram and logic symbol for D latch below Example : determine the Q output waveform
J-K Edge triggered Flip-Flops Digital systems 1 Flip flops are generally synchronous bistables Thus output changes state at specified point of triggering(CLK) input The state either changes at the +ve edge or –ve edge. J-K flip-flop is similar to S-R flip flop but it does not have invalid state. J-K flip flop have a toggle state as opposed to invalid state of S-R Notice the logic diagram and the truth table of J-K flip flop

J-K flip-flop is similar to S-R flip flop but is does not have invalid state. J-K flip flop have a toggle state as opposed to invalid state of S-R Notice the logic diagram, symbol and the truth table of J-K flip flop +ve edge Example : determine the Q output waveform
