(i)
...

As we know that the output expression for ‘NOT’ gate is, Z=X
...
As we have to implement NOT gate using NAND gate, so hence 1st we are using
expression for NAND gate, then Z=X*Y, so we have to connect inputs of NAND gate i
...
X & Y with each other
then X=Y (i
...
both are equal)
...
X=X (i

X*X=X),i

Z=X hence we
have formed expression for ‘NOT’ gate using ‘NAND’ gate

(ii)

As we know that the output expression for AND gate is, Z=X*Y

As we have to implement AND gate using NAND gate, so hence 1 st we are using
expression for NAND gate, then Z=X*Y, so we are taking single inversion on R

hence we have

(iii)

As we know that the output expression for OR gate is, Z=X+Y
...
As we have to implement OR gate using NAND gate, so hence 1st we are using expression
for NAND gate, then Z=X*Y, so by following rule number (3) we can get X*Y=X+Y, then by taking single
inversion on R
...
S

So finally we can get X*Y=X+Y

The equivalent circuit is as shown below

The output of a toggle flip-flop, also called a T flip-flop, this flip flop is derived from J-K flip flop

Following are the
observations are possible depend on ‘clock signal’ & input value of ‘T’

When CLK= & ‘T’=0, then will not be any further change in inputs & outputs

When CLK= & ‘T’=1, then toggling case occurs i

outputs will be inverted

What is ‘Race Around’ condition?

Hence such multiple toggling modes are known as race around condition
...
Draw the block diagram of Master-Slave flip flop & also describe its working?
...
It consists of 2 clocked S-R flip flops
...
The master flip-flop is enabled on the positive edge of the clock
pulse CLK and the slave flip-flop is disabled by the inverter (NOT gate)
...
e
...
Then master sets or resets according to the state of the
input signals
...
When
the clock goes low (i
...
‘0’) then master flip flop is inactive and the slave flip flop is active
...
The final O/P Q of a master-slave flip flop is O/P of the slave

Hence by using this
concept multiple toggling i

race around condition will be also avoided

...
Before the application of clock signal let Q0Q1Q2Q3=0000
...
After applying clock signal, at 1st falling (negative) edge of clock signal FF-0 will be set, hence
Q0Q1Q2Q3=1000
...
At 2nd falling (negative) edge of clock signal FF-1 will be set, hence Q0Q1Q2Q3=1100
...
At 3rd falling (negative) edge of clock signal FF-2 will be set, hence Q0Q1Q2Q3=1110
...
At 4th falling (negative) edge of clock signal FF-3 will be set, hence Q0Q1Q2Q3=1111
...
Draw the circuit & timing diagram (waveforms) of 4-bit ring counter with working?
...
These registers are classified as counters because they exhibit a
specified sequence of states
...
The above 4-bit ring counter is constructed from D
flip-flops
...
If the
CLEAR signal is high, all the flip-flops except the first one FF0 are reset to 0
...
Since
the count sequence has 4 distinct states, the counter can be considered as a mod-4 counter
...

In a ring counter, the sequence of states may follow a binary count or any other sequence of
states
...
They are used for counting the
number of occurrences of an even and are useful for generating timing sequences to control operations in a
digital system
...
Thus, the value after the clock
transition depends only on old values of the outputs
...
Draw the circuit & timing diagram (waveforms) of 4-bit ripple counter with working?
...
Swapnil Kaware (svkaware@yahoo
...
in)*

A ripple counter is a cascaded arrangement of flip-flops
...
In a ripple counter, also called an asynchronous counter or a serial counter, In this counter all the flip
flops are not under the control of a single clock
...
The clock input to any subsequent flip-flop comes from the
output of its immediately preceding flip-flop
...

That is, the second flip-flop would change state a certain time delay after the occurrence of the
input clock pulse owing to the fact that it gets its own clock input from the output of the first flip-flop and not
from the input clock
...
In general, the nth flip-flop will change state only after a delay equal to n times the
propagation delay of one flip-flop
...

It is also called an ‘asynchronous counter’ as different flip-flops comprising the counter do not
change state in synchronization with the input clock
...
The propagation delay of each flip-flop, of course, will depend
upon the logic family to which it belongs
...
Draw the circuit diagram of multiplexer (data selector) & also explain its operation?
...
Multiplexer,

Fig(b)
...


A Multiplexer (MUX) is a combinational device having multiple data inputs, select inputs & only one output
...
Hence, a multiplexer can take many data bits and put them,
one at a time, on a single output data line in a particular sequence
...
i
...
output line can be attached with only one input data line at the same
time only
...
The relation between
select inputs (i
...
‘m’) & data inputs (i

‘n’) can be stated as,2 =n
