Positive edge detection of a

RLO (Result of a Logic
Operation)

Negative edge detection of a

RLO (Result of a Logic
Operation)

Network 8:

Only I0.0 = ON => No result

Only I0.1 = ON => No result
When I0.0 AND I0.1 = ON, at the positive edge (When One of the inputs are already ON and the
other turns OFF to ON) => Q0.6 Set

Network 9:

When I0.0 OR I0.1 = OFF, at the negative edge (When at least One of the inputs change from ON to
OFF) => Q0.6 Reset

Please note that for Positive and Negative Edge detection, you need to have a temporary bit memory
to keep the last status of the Result of logic.

Note that Positive edges occur only when there is a change or the RLO from Off to ON.
Note that Negative edges occur only when there is a change or the RLO from ON to OFF.
