Disadvantages of JK Flip-Flop
- Complexity: Compared to other types of flipflops(D,T, SR), JK flipflop requires additional logic gates to implement which consumes extra memory resources and increases complexity to operate.
- Propagation Delay: This is the major problem present in JK-FF. Propagation delay results a timing delay in certain application which are time-flow sensitive.
- Race Problem: This issue arises when the clock input’s timing pulse isn’t given enough time to turn “Off” before the output Q’s state is altered.
What is JK Flip-Flop ?
In Digital Electronics and communication science, flip-flops are widely used for handling binary information. These fundamental building blocks are used to store and manipulate information as per our needs. From the Flipflop family, Jack Kilby flip-flop(JK Flipflop) is very prominent as it is very versatile and can be used as a basic memory element. It can store binary information, and toggle functionality with a diversity of making applications with it. This article will cover all about JK flipflop.
