FLIP-FLOPs
❑ Introduction to flip flops
❑ Types of flip flops
1) R-S Flip-flop
2) J-K Flip-flop
3) D Flip-flop
4) T Flip-flop
 Introduction

Definition:
❑ A flip-flop is a sequential digital electronic circuit having two
stable states that can be used to store one bit of binary data.
❑ Flip-flops are the fundamental building blocks of all memory
devices.
❑ It has two outputs ; one for normal value and the other is its
complement.
