EE2174: Digital Logic and Lab Professor Shiyan Hu Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Michigan Technological University CHAPTER 9 Sequential Circuits
Sequential Circuits • Combinational Logic: • Output depends only on current input • Able to perform useful operations (add/subtract/multiply/…) • Require cascading of many structures • Costly and inflexible Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Sequential Circuits (cont.) • Sequential Logic: • Output depends not only on current input but also on past input values • Store information between operations (no need for cascading) • Need some type of memory to remember the past input values Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Sequential Circuits (cont.) Information Storing Circuits Circuits that we have learned so far Timed “States” Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Sequential Logic: Concept • Sequential Logic circuits remember past inputs and past circuit state. • Outputs from the system are“fed back” as new inputs (usually with delay). • The storage elements are circuits that are capable of storing binary information: memory. Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Synchronous vs. Asynchronous machines There are two types of sequential circuits: • Synchronous (latch mode) sequential circuit: the behavior can be defined from knowledge of its signal at discrete instants of time. This type of circuits achieves synchronization by using a timing signal called the clock. • Asynchronous (fundamental mode) sequential circuit: the behavior is dependent on the order of input signal changes over continuous time, and output can change at any time (clockless). Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Clock Signal Clock generator: Periodic train of clock pulses Different duty cycles Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Synchronous Sequential Circuits:Flip flops as state memory • The flip-flops receive their inputs from the combinational circuit and also from a clock signal with pulses at fixed intervals of time, as shown in the timing diagram. Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Storing Elements Can’t change the stored value! Inverters Buffers Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits

D Latch • One way to eliminate the undesirable indeterminate state in the RS latch is to ensure that inputs S and R are never 1 simultaneously. This is done in the D latch: Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits

D Latch with Transmission Gates 1 2 • C=1 TG1 closes and TG2 opens Q’=D’ and Q=D • C=0 TG1 opens and TG2 closes Hold Q and Q’ Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Flip-Flops • Latches are “transparent” (= any change on the inputs is seen at the outputs immediately). • This causes synchronization problems! • Solution: use latches to create flip-flops that can respond (update) ONLY on SPECIFIC times (instead of ANY time). Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Alternatives in FF choice • Type of FF • RS • D • JK • Type of triggering • Untriggered (asynchronous) • Level-triggered (C=1) • Edge-triggered (rising or falling edge of C) Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits

S R CLK Q Q’ • When C=1, master is enabled and stores new data, slave stores old data. • When C=0, master’s state passes to enabled slave (Q=Y), master not sensitive to new data (disabled). 0 0 1 Q0 Q0’ Hold 0 1 1 0 1 Reset 1 0 1 1 0 Set 1 1 1 1 1 Disallowed X X 0 Q0 Q0’ Hold Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Master-Slave J-K Flip-Flop Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Flip-Flop Problem • The change in the flip-flop output is determined by the circuit frequency • S and/or R are permitted to change while C = 1 • Suppose that Q = 0 and S=1, R=0 -> S=0, R=0 • The master latch sets to 1 • A 1 is transferred to the slave • Suppose that Q = 0 and S=1, R=0 -> S=0, R=0 -> S=0, R=1 -> S=0, R=0 • The master latch sets and then resets • A 0 is transferred to the slave Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Flip-Flop Solution • Use edge-triggering instead of master-slave • An edge-triggered flip-flop ignores the pulse while it is at a constant level and triggers only during a transition of the clock signal • Edge-triggered flip-flops can be built directly at the electronic circuit level, or • A master-slave D flip-flop which also exhibits edge-triggered behavior can be used. Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Edge-triggered Flip-Flops • Attach level-triggered D to level-triggered SR, using complemented clocks. • D-Type Positive Edge-Triggered Flip-Flop: Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
Characteristic Tables • Defines the logical properties of a flip-flop (such as a truth table does for a logic gate). • Q(t) – present state at time t • Q(t+1) – next state at time t+1 Chapter 9: Sequential Circuits
