Define shift registers.

1 Answer

Answer :

The  binary  information  in  a  register  can  be  moved from  stage  to  stage  within  the  register  or  into  or  out  of  the  register  upon  application  of  clock  pulses.  This  type  of  bit movement  or  shifting  is  essential  for  certain  arithmetic  and  logic  operations  used  in microprocessors. This gives rise to group of registers called shift registers.

Description : Define race around condition.

Last Answer : In JK flip-flop output is fed back to the input. Therefore change in the output results change in the input. Due to this in the positive half of the clock pulse if both J and K are high then output toggles continuously. This condition iscalled ‘race around condition’.

Description : Define Flip flop.

Description : What is edge-triggered flip-flop?

Last Answer : The problem of race around condition can solved by edge triggering flip flop. The term edge triggering means that the flip-flop changes state either at the positive ... negative edge of the clock pulse and it is sensitive to its inputs only at this transition of the clock.

Description : What is the operation of T flip-flop?

Last Answer : T flip-flop is also known as Toggle flip-flop. • When T=0 there is no change in the output. • When T=1 the output switch to the complement state (ie) the output toggles.

Description : What is the operation of JK flip-flop?

Last Answer : When K input is low and J input is high the Q output of flip-flop is set. When K input is high and J input is low the Q output of flip-flop is reset. When both the inputs ... are high it is possible to set or reset the flip-flop (ie) the output toggle on the next positive clock edge.

Description : What is the operation of D flip-flop?

Last Answer : In D flip-flop during the occurrence of clock pulse if D=1, the output Q is set and if D=0, the output is reset.
