@@dule78101 For the sake of understanding, it's the most essential things. I have the feeling that for most people "understanding" is not really the reason why they watch this or other YT videos
In case anybody got confused like me, for active high SR Latches, the S is on the BOTTOM with Q-Bar and R is on TOP with Q. This way the S sets Q to 1 when it's high and R sets Q to 0 when its high
@@babadmanz It basically means that a device's output will change to high when the input to the device changes to high, active low is when the output of the device changes to high when the input changes to low
Obviously she didn't actually check the logic in her diagram, the set and reset inputs are reversed. Also, you would pull them down with resistors, not attach directly to ground.
This series is great because you're using visuals to such great effect ! So easy to see what you're explaining, because up until recent times, we had to memorise what was illustrated in voluminous text books ! And you're explaining it so clearly to us ! This series is so useful because we can bookmark it and return as often as we need to for a refresher ! An Arduino makes things too easy; in a way it is a sledge-hammer to crack a nut, whereas we can ( and did ) use a flip flop to do the same job much more simply. As I said in another comment. this was the way that computers were built - they lived in air-conditioned rooms the size of Walmart, with hundreds of flip-flop boards each using 3 transistors. Because computers can't stop if they're multi-programming, the data has to keep cycling round until it is needed, which it did in these rings of flip flops ! Things began to change in the mid 1970s, when integrated circuits took over from discrete transistors for flip flops, and the shrinkage in hardware size began to take off. IT's great that you're covering all of this in this series - thanks !
Unfortunately, the example for the active-high RS is incorrect. Either the SET and RESET need to be swapped or the Q and Q-NOT need to be swapped. It is IMPERATIVE when making instructional videos to be accurate or it will just confuse the viewer. How does anyone , in the know, miss that the output of a NOR gate cannot be HIGH if either of the inputs is HIGH? (3:10)
The diagram for the NOR gate RS flip flop is incorrect. The SET input is on the NOR with Q-NOT output and the RESET is on the NOR with Q output. There is no way for Q to be HIGH ( 3:10) with either of the inputs to that NOR gate also being HIGH. This video has been out for nearly three years and no one has noticed this?
Why oh god WHY couldnt I find this video when you guys posted it and we were covering ff's. I looked through so many videos and so many read throughs that all seemed incomplete and made me more confused. Finally after blood sweat and tears I feel like a completely understand these but why couldn't I find this video when I needed it ;-;. Pls keep it up, your guy's videos are so incredibly helpful. Sadly better than my expensive textbook...
@@RaffieFaffieMost sources usually have ¬Q as the output of the NOR gate which has S as its input and Q as the output of the NOR gate which has R as its input. She's got it the other way around but she still continues the description of the circuit as if the inputs and outputs are named in the usual way (if you swap the outputs together with their values, they go back to being correct). Hence the values are all wrong. E.g. at 3:07, with S = 1 then Q must be 0 Same error at 4:44 with S = 1. again Q must be 0 in the circuit on the left (the one called "Active High").
I think you've got Q and Q bar reversed on your SR flip-flop. Looking at the top NOR gate, if either of its inputs is high, the output will be low, meaning that if SET goes high, Q will go low. Edit: it turns out the more common way is to switch RESET and SET, but the end result is the same.

Jk flip flops are usually used for counters, either synchronous or asynchronous and D flip flops are usually used for fsm implementation. Also, if you connect j and k together, then it becomes a T flip flop
Hmm..., from 3:00 when said the inputs are connected to the Ground then discussed these inputs set to High is totally confusing. How something changed if that connected to the Ground? If something connected to the Ground that signal is always Low or I missed something? English is not my native, so maybe this is the root of the problem...
It's so annoying that it's taken me this long to finally find someone who can teach this in the most understandable and simplest way possible. Thank you so much
Very nice instruction but I am confused. How is it possible that the flip flop examples (time 2:42) show both gates with set and reset inputs connected together denoted as ground, and that independently each input is said to be at different states, either high while the other is low or vise a versa?
This is an undefined state and the example should not be shown this way. It's confusing. It's also incorrect. If you were to power up the flip-flop with both inputs tied low, then it's simply a race condition as shown and you do not know if Q or Q-NOT will be HIGH. Circuitry in modern flip-flops can be implemented to prevent this unknow initialization state, but typically a master SET or RESET is generated because the STATE of system must be DETERMINISTIC and the only occurs if the STATE is predictable.

Mam thanks a lot for the wonderful amazing video. By the way I wanted to add some correction At 5:27 minute of your video there is an error of AND gate image. You have added the inverter sign on the diagram. Since there won't be any inverted or bubble sign on the AND gate. Thanks
I am condused. At 2:37 you say that NOR gates are only 1 if both inputs are 0. But then at 3:06 you say that setting the input to the SR flip flop causes the top NOR gate (input now 1,0) to have an output of 1.
At 3:39 you show reset high and set low when they are both connected together and to ground. You can't have two levels on the same wire at the same time, and in the case of TTL at least 0v wins.
Thank you for this video! It helps my revision a lot. I have a questions for the SR Flip-Flop (Active Low). When drawing, do we need to connect SET' and RESET' to ground?
Great video, thanks :) !!! It really explains flip-flops very well. But there is an error in the diagram for "active-nor" sr-latch. "Set" should be at the bottom and "reset" should be at the top. See other comments. This got me very confused :)
Just getting into electronics so bear with me here! Could you possibly include an everyday use of where these IC's are used, example, a flip flop could be used to toggle a chess clock, then give a quick dirty circuit that can be made at home? I ask this because I can watch videos all day long on what IC's are but I have no idea where to use then or how you would set up a circuit to create inputs for them. Any help in unlocking this magical box of mystery will be most appreciated!
SSDs and RAM use flip flops to store data. At 0:45 Karen states that flip flops and latches are sequential logic devices with built-in memory; combination logic devices don't have memory capabilities.
Flip flops that use a few extra parts are so much easier to understand . An SR latch made of an OR Gate, AND Gate , Inverter combination is a good place to start.

Well PRESET It Sets the output-Q and CLEAR resets the Q value. now what makes these special is the fact that they are asychronous to the clock input. if one of these inputs goes active it doesn't matter what are the inputs of J&K or even the clock input.
Why Q changing only in the next positive edge of the clock and not when D changes? If clock is 1(enable = 1 ) it means that the and gates passes S and R and Q should change immediately, isn’t it ?6:26
How can Q be high if one or both inputs of the top NOR gate is high? Its Q' which should be high because when SET is high, both inputs to the bottom NOR gate is low and hence Q' becomes high at 1.
Yes. Latches are very fast so your button would need a debounce circuit, but that is precisely why these are called Flip-Flops... the output can change states on every arriving clock. Your button is the clock.

When set goes high output q should go low because its a xnor gate. Set is true so q is false. So if q is false and reset isnt on then _ q should be true.
In this one video here, at least in my opinion, we have the foundation of all RAM, all flash memory, and the reason that logic circuits had to shrink between ENIAC boards in 1945 and the creation of the home computer.
They are on the element14 community - all TLC episodes can be found here: community.element14.com/challenges-projects/element14-presents/thelearningcircuit?ICID=e14-presents-navigation
so I have a question: I think all kinds of flip flops have memory because the wiring typically implies an infinite loop (in software jargon) is that accurate? And at 3:10 why in an RS active high flip flop would setting S to high sets Q to high if for an NOR gate to return 1 both inputs should be set to 0. plz answer I need this info asap.
Hello there, I am new in circuit world. My question: to have an output, you have to have two inputs. In flip flops, how it is possible to have output with just one input (I think so)? There are two gates each with two inputs. One input of each gate comes from the output of the other gate. I did not understand this. Thank you
Flip-flops are normally made using cmos technology which is STATIC SENSITIVE and therefore should NOT be handled without protective packaging while out of the circuit, or else the component can be destroyed by electrostatic charges which can be present in your fingers!
Can someone explain. When NOR logic sets the output to 1 for only both inputs =0. must set =0 and reset = 1 (to be reversed to input 0 to the upper gate)?
Very nice animations! I know it is standard, but, as a mathematician, I would prefer not to call the outputs of an RS-flipflop Q and Q bar. Why not Q1 and Q2? Then all the misconceptions about the "invalid state" is eliminated from the very beginning.
I found pre and clr on SN74HC74N used in a UV light, an alleged medical skin healing device. It would only stay on for 7 seconds and the On sw was a momentary on with led. So either the pre and clr made the momentary sw a latch or turned it off after 7 seconds. This is a positive edge triggered IC with 2 channels in its 14 pins, common vcc and ground. The device also had a two channel 555 chip. I just started taking things apart to see how they work to re-purpose them. I want to bypass the timer on this light with as little destruction/mod as possible.
sis you have error on 3:13 minute. it should be when set is high q dash is latched to high and q is low " the opposite" i hope you check it by making simulation ( nor gate will give high only if both input is low) also the set and reset in opposite position
Your pretty. Very pretty. But although I am a little worried of my being a little stubborn I encourage you to imagine Gates , Latches , and Flip Flops of every sort being made with only SPSD relays which shows everything involved in an easy to understand manner (unless you state what beneficial end the circuits shown have. Such as using fewer components by doing something like adding a circuit that resets all the RS flip flops at power up.) I hope I don't sound like I am being mean when my objective includes being helpful . By starting with the simple relay logic method everything can be seen with the eyes as switches in one of two positions depending on whether an electromagnet is on or off. From there following the rules for the type of ICs used will allow the circuits to be converted from one method to the other.
I find these interesting, you can use the logic for managing user interface script/code, they were designed for tasks emulated in paradigms you find like in screen buttons, toggles, timeouts
1:24 The labels Q and Q' are placed at the wrong output pin !! Q is connected to the output "reset" NOR gate not the "set" NOR gate PLEASE at least PIN a correction comment or add note to description. YT is already full with misinformation
I got lost when active-low was introduced. I can't understand how the circuits behave differently if they are identical, and all that has changed is putting a bar over the S and R.
They are not the same circuits. The first is built (incorrectly, by the way) with NOR gates and the second is built with NAND gates. Unfortunately, the example for the active-high RS is incorrect. Either the SET and RESET need to be swapped or the Q and Q-NOT need to be swapped. It is IMPERATIVE when making instructional videos to be accurate or it will just confuse the viewer. How does anyone , in the know, miss that the output of a NOR gate cannot be HIGH if either of the inputs is HIGH? (3:10)
There must be some reason that involves a lot of understanding first or I can not really find a good reason not to use a different SR flipflop which uses one input of a two input OR gate input as the Set input . The OR gate output is connected to one input of a two input AND gate. The other input of the AND gate is connected to an inverter output. The inverter input is the Reset input. The output of the AND gate is connected to the other input of the OR gate and is also the Q output. There are no disallowed states and no inputs need to be assumed.
Yes, you need background to try and rethink why NOR gates are used. In essence, just about every combination logic gate is made up of NOR gates. Even inverters are just a NOR gate with both inputs tied together. NOR gates are easy to construct on the wafer. That said, the circuit you describe makes no sense as you do not show where the Q-NOT signal is derived. Nevertheless, what you have described is equivalent to the two NOR gate example: Take the inverted output of the first NOR gate and move it to be the inverted input of the other. You now have an OR gate, and another OR gate with in inverted input and inverted output. This is BOOLEAN equivalent to an AND gate with one inverted input. Yes, you need more background to understand this. It also doesn't help that the example shown here is INCORRECT. The example for the active-high RS is incorrect. Either the SET and RESET need to be swapped or the Q and Q-NOT need to be swapped. It is IMPERATIVE when making instructional videos to be accurate or it will just confuse the viewer. How does anyone , in the know, miss that the output of a NOR gate cannot be HIGH if either of the inputs is HIGH? (3:10)
@@DiffEQ maybe I did not describe it clearly but I tried the circuit and it worked for both toggle and data flipflops that I can use and understand easily. So can anyone without needing any type of degree. At the very least it provides a easy answer that gets us there without many hours of study first. The drawbacks of cross coupled circuits can seem to make no sense to amatures. I will be using this circuit to construct a calculator I designed although I do not possess any type of degree

In this one video here, at least in my opinion, we have the foundation of all RAM, all flash memory, and the reason that logic circuits had to shrink between ENIAC boards in 1945 and the creation of the home computer.
Can you just merry me, you explaining this is like listening to Celine Deion singing the Titanic Song 😁
Hi! I can't find the missing episodes (54-59)
They are on the element14 community - all TLC episodes can be found here: community.element14.com/challenges-projects/element14-presents/thelearningcircuit?ICID=e14-presents-navigation
there is a mistake the SET and Reset are reversed !
so I have a question: I think all kinds of flip flops have memory because the wiring typically implies an infinite loop (in software jargon) is that accurate?
And at 3:10 why in an RS active high flip flop would setting S to high sets Q to high if for an NOR gate to return 1 both inputs should be set to 0. plz answer I need this info asap.
Because the schematics/diagram is wrong. The labels Q and Q' are placed at the wrong output pin !!
I don't remember buying tickets to the gun show. Oh well, I'm not complaining ;)
Thank you so much!
Hello there, I am new in circuit world. My question: to have an output, you have to have two inputs. In flip flops, how it is possible to have output with just one input (I think so)? There are two gates each with two inputs. One input of each gate comes from the output of the other gate. I did not understand this. Thank you
You are a very talented and smart person
honestly, 6:50-7:15 ( it mean Q output always change when S, R, D occurred.. ?)
Flip-flops are normally made using cmos technology which is STATIC SENSITIVE and therefore should NOT be handled without protective packaging while out of the circuit, or else the component can be destroyed by electrostatic charges which can be present in your fingers!
wouldn't the output of a NOR gate HAVE TO BE ZERO if any of the inputs are 1? so how can Q be 1 if S is 1 in a flip flop that uses NOR gates?
Can someone explain. When NOR logic sets the output to 1 for only both inputs =0. must set =0 and reset = 1 (to be reversed to input 0 to the upper gate)?
Very nice animations! I know it is standard, but, as a mathematician, I would prefer not to call the outputs of an RS-flipflop Q and Q bar. Why not Q1 and Q2? Then all the misconceptions about the "invalid state" is eliminated from the very beginning.
I found pre and clr on SN74HC74N used in a UV light, an alleged medical skin healing device. It would only stay on for 7 seconds and the On sw was a momentary on with led. So either the pre and clr made the momentary sw a latch or turned it off after 7 seconds. This is a positive edge triggered IC with 2 channels in its 14 pins, common vcc and ground. The device also had a two channel 555 chip. I just started taking things apart to see how they work to re-purpose them. I want to bypass the timer on this light with as little destruction/mod as possible.
Excellent , but I think the input signals S-R are inverred in the block diagram
You "think"? They are DEFINITELY reversed.
Please suggest me a best beginner digital electronics book please
sis you have error on 3:13 minute. it should be when set is high q dash is latched to high and q is low " the opposite" i hope you check it by making simulation ( nor gate will give high only if both input is low) also the set and reset in opposite position
Next up: Tutorial on VHDL/Verilog :P

Your pretty. Very pretty. But although I am a little worried of my being a little stubborn I encourage you to imagine Gates , Latches , and Flip Flops of every sort being made with only SPSD relays which shows everything involved in an easy to understand manner (unless you state what beneficial end the circuits shown have. Such as using fewer components by doing something like adding a circuit that resets all the RS flip flops at power up.) I hope I don't sound like I am being mean when my objective includes being helpful . By starting with the simple relay logic method everything can be seen with the eyes as switches in one of two positions depending on whether an electromagnet is on or off. From there following the rules for the type of ICs used will allow the circuits to be converted from one method to the other.
yeah trying to study for a final tm no one in the class even knows whats going on remotely and i finally have an idea
Problem solve ?! Not quite... what about the race around condition when clk = j = k = 1?
Yes, in the SR latch diagram, either the SET and RESET labels need to be reversed OR the Q and Q' need to be reversed.
Solid video thanks !
Thanks!
Nice video...
Tutorial 54-59 not found...
She's speaking the language of gods

2:10 ACTIVE HIGH VS ACTIVE LOW
Excellent
Thank you very much for uploading this well explaining video. Very useful !!!!
I find these interesting, you can use the logic for managing user interface script/code, they were designed for tasks emulated in paradigms you find like in screen buttons, toggles, timeouts
OMG..... WHAT LANGUAGE WAS THIS IN.... I AM CONFUSED TO THE MAX
Thanks for sharing!
Nice information TY
1:24 The labels Q and Q' are placed at the wrong output pin !!
Q is connected to the output "reset" NOR gate not the "set" NOR gate
PLEASE at least PIN a correction comment or add note to description. YT is already full with misinformation
I thought flip flops and latches are not the same, why are you able to use them interchangeably?
Thanks, Karen!
Derek has this overview of Flip Flops and how they work: ua-cam.com/video/S28QFe7EdNI/v-deo.html
How does SET high makes Q high??
I got lost when active-low was introduced. I can't understand how the circuits behave differently if they are identical, and all that has changed is putting a bar over the S and R.
They are not the same circuits. The first is built (incorrectly, by the way) with NOR gates and the second is built with NAND gates.
Unfortunately, the example for the active-high RS is incorrect. Either the SET and RESET need to be swapped or the Q and Q-NOT need to be swapped. It is IMPERATIVE when making instructional videos to be accurate or it will just confuse the viewer. How does anyone , in the know, miss that the output of a NOR gate cannot be HIGH if either of the inputs is HIGH? (3:10)
Where are the previous lessons? There's is a gab between the 53 and 60th lesson :(
They are only on the element14 Community. They are about the BBC micro:bit.
There must be some reason that involves a lot of understanding first or I can not really find a good reason not to use a different SR flipflop which uses one input of a two input OR gate input as the Set input . The OR gate output is connected to one input of a two input AND gate. The other input of the AND gate is connected to an inverter output. The inverter input is the Reset input. The output of the AND gate is connected to the other input of the OR gate and is also the Q output. There are no disallowed states and no inputs need to be assumed.
Yes, you need background to try and rethink why NOR gates are used. In essence, just about every combination logic gate is made up of NOR gates. Even inverters are just a NOR gate with both inputs tied together. NOR gates are easy to construct on the wafer.
That said, the circuit you describe makes no sense as you do not show where the Q-NOT signal is derived. Nevertheless, what you have described is equivalent to the two NOR gate example:
Take the inverted output of the first NOR gate and move it to be the inverted input of the other. You now have an OR gate, and another OR gate with in inverted input and inverted output. This is BOOLEAN equivalent to an AND gate with one inverted input.
Yes, you need more background to understand this.
It also doesn't help that the example shown here is INCORRECT.

@@DiffEQ maybe I did not describe it clearly but I tried the circuit and it worked for both toggle and data flipflops that I can use and understand easily. So can anyone without needing any type of degree. At the very least it provides a easy answer that gets us there without many hours of study first. The drawbacks of cross coupled circuits can seem to make no sense to amatures. I will be using this circuit to construct a calculator I designed although I do not possess any type of degree
OMG that Mario Galaxy t-shirt! I want one too!
She is pretty good!!!
Good work
learning confuse , but getting there thks
