D flip flop
A flip-flop is a device that has two states, Set and Reset, and which
transfers its input data to the Q output on the positive- or negative-going
transition(edge) of the clock signal (hence the name clocked flip-flop).
However D flip flop is a circuit that stores data temporarily by
maintaining the D input at Q output for a specific period of clock. It only
changes the output on positive or negative edges of clocks and not in
between. The output is changed according to corresponding value of D
input.
Truth Table
Applications of D flip flop:
Registers
Registers are the devices which are meant to store the data. As known,
each D flip-flop can store a single-bit of information. This means that by
cascading n flip-flops, one can store n bits of information. Such an
arrangement is called an n-bit register.
Counters
Counters are the digital circuits which are used to count the number of
events. These are nothing but a series of flip-flops (JK or D or T)
arranged in a definite manner. A single flip-flop has two states 0 and 1,
which means that it can count upto two. Thus one flip-flop forms a 2-bit
counter. Similarly to count till 8, one needs to connect 3 flip flops in
series.
Event Detectors
Event detectors are the circuits which aid in determining the occurrence
of a particular event. These devices are required to change their state
when an event occurs and should further be held in the same state till
that event gets cleared.
Frequency Divider
Flip flops can divide the frequency of periodic waveform. When a pulse
wave is used to toggle an flip flop, the output frequency becomes one
half the input frequency.
