Abstract
There are twelve possible design options for SR-Flip Flops but conventionally, two design options are in use. This paper thus focuses, on all the design options with a comparative analysis and implementation on why the two most used options are considered feasible in the design of digital device applications. From the analysis presented in this paper, it is obvious that conventional SR-Flip Flops that contains only two gates will not function fully as an SR-Flip Flop because there are four Active/transitional states in any SR-Flip Flop which suggests, a minimum number of gates that may be required to meet this requirement. The Active states are identified and analysed from the SR-Flip Flop Truth Table using the NOR or NAND gates which are the two design active elements of SR- Flip Flop. Using the conventional circuit diagram of SR-Flip Flops with two cross-couple gates, the number of transitions is observed to be less than the number of input combinations. Hence, it is obvious that one of the transition states will be attached to two input combinations which in effect increase the usefulness of such Flip Flop from 25% to 50% utilization.
