Excerxise: R-S Latch with Low Asserted Inputs.<br />
Design a sequential circuit which is described by the following Next State table:<br />
Base your design on NAND gates.<br />
Solution:<br />
Inputs Next State (*)<br />
R S Q* (Q’)* Comment<br />
1 1 Q Q’ hold<br />
1 0 1 0 set<br />
0 1 0 1 reset<br />
0 0 0 0 unstable<br />
TABLE 2<br />
Step 1: Implement as a combinatorial circuit with a (single) feedback loop:<br />
Step 2: Break the feedback loop <strong>and</strong> analyse the transition from the present state Q to<br />
the next state Q*:<br />
Step 3: Draw the K map for output Q* in terms of inputs R, S <strong>and</strong> Q:<br />
INPUTS<br />
