A sequential circuit consists of a feedback path, and employs
some memory elements.

Introduction
There are two types of sequential circuits:
synchronous: outputs change only at specific time
Bistable logic devices: latches and flip-flops. Latches and flip-flops differ in the method used for changing
their state.

indefinitely, or change value on command from its inputs.

S-R Latch
Complementary outputs: Q and Q'. When Q is HIGH, the latch is in SET state. When Q is LOW, the latch is in RESET state. For active-HIGH input S-R latch (also known as NOR gate latch),
R=HIGH (and S=LOW) a RESET state S=HIGH (and R=LOW) a SET state both inputs LOW a no change both inputs HIGH a Q and Q' both LOW (invalid)!

S-R Latch
For active-LOW input S'-R' latch (also known as NAND gate
latch), R'=LOW (and S'=HIGH) a RESET state S'=LOW (and R'=HIGH) a SET state both inputs HIGH a no change both inputs LOW a Q and Q' both HIGH (invalid)!

Edge-Triggered Flip-flops
Flip-flops: synchronous bistable devices Output changes state at a specified point on a triggering input Change state either at the positive edge (rising edge) or at the
negative edge (falling edge) of the clock signal.

Asynchronous Inputs
S-R, D and J-K inputs are synchronous inputs, as data on these Asynchronous inputs affect the state of the flip-flop
CS1104-11
inputs are transferred to the flip-flops output only on the triggered edge of the clock pulse.
When PRE=HIGH, Q is immediately set to HIGH. When CLR=HIGH, Q is immediately cleared to LOW. Flip-flop in normal operation mode when both PRE and CLR are
LOW.
