We can model the behavior of these chips by enumerating the output they produce for all possible inputs. In order to show this behavior, we use truth tables, which show the output for all input combinations. The outputs of combinational logic gates depend only on the instantaneous values of the inputs. Logic Gates Logic Gate Example: XOR Boolean Algebra The basis of boolean algebra lies in the operations of logical addition, or the OR operation, and logical multiplication, or the AND operation. OR Gate If either X or Y is true (1), then Z is true (1) AND Gate If both X and Y are true (1), then Z is true (1) Logic gates can have an arbitrary number of inputs. Note the similarities to the behavior of the mathematical operators plus and times. Laws of Boolean Algebra DeMorgan’s Laws Timing Diagrams – sequential logic Part B – Flip Flops Sequential Logic Devices Flip Flops By-Pass Capacitors Sequential Logic Devices In a sequential logic device, the timing or sequencing of the input signals is important. Devices in this class include flip-flops and counters. Positive edge-triggered devices respond to a low-to-high (0 to 1) transition, and negative edge-triggered devices respond to a high-to-low (1 to 0) transition. Flip-Flops A flip-flop is a sequential device that can store and switch between two binary states. It is called a bistable device since it has two and only two possible output states: 1 (high) and 0 (low). It has the capability of remaining in a particular state (i.e., storing a bit) until the clock signal and certain combinations of the input cause it to change state. Inside the R-S Flip Fl
