When it comes to illogical logic circuits I have to say I was always scratching my head when it came to Edge Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops. These are one of the most common logic blocks in today’s ...

We are somewhat spoiled because electronics today are very reliable compared to even a few decades ago. Most modern electronics obey the bathtub curve. If they don’t fail right away, they won’t fail ...

Applications for using a single pushbutton to advance a circuit to its next logical state are legion. Typically, there are just “on” and “off” states, but there can be more. The heart of the circuit ...

In this paper, the authors deal with the testable design of conservative logic based sequential circuits by using two test vectors. The conservative logic based sequential circuits are built from the ...

Over the recent years post-silicon SoC validation has become a major bottleneck in IC design. Due restricted design cycle time and test bench limitations almost all the designs are taped-out with ...

A flip-flop is one of the most basic digital electronic circuits. It can most easily be built from just two transistors, although they can and have been built out of vacuum tubes, NAND and NOR gates, ...
