TRIGGERING OF FLIP-FLOPS
➢In level triggering, the input signals affect the flip-flop only when
the clock is at logic 1 level. Such type of flip-flop knows as level
triggered flip-flops.
➢Since the flip-flop changes its state only when clock pulse is
HIGH, this is also referred to as positive level triggered flip-flop.
➢Flip-flop changes its state when clock pulse is LOW and it is called
negative level triggered flip-flop.
positive level
Negative level
➢ In edge triggering, the input signals affect the flip-flop only if they
are present at the positive going or negative going edge of the clock
pulse.
positive level
Negative level
✓The master is set according to J and K while the clock is high; the
contents of the master are then shifted into the slave (Q changes state)
when the clock goes low.
✓The master is clocked in the normal way but the inverted clock is
applied to slave i.e, the master is positive-level-triggered and the slave
is negative level-triggered.
