Logic - Flip Flops

Flip flops are one of the most fundamental logic elements found in digital systems today. As number of logic elements within a given system increases, the reliability of the system also increases and so does their importance in achieving reliable operation. NLV14076BDR2G is a type of flip flop whose application field and working principle can be explained further in this article.

NLV14076BDR2G is a type of dual-in-single-out (DISO) flip flop. As the name suggests, it has two inputs- a Data (D) input and a Clock (C) input and a single output (Q). It performs the typically expected flip flop operations, in that it stores and latches data from the D input when it receives a Clock Command Input (C).

Application Fields of the NLV14076BDR2G

NLV14076BDR2G finds its primary application in digital devices. It is most commonly used in register operations, as a reference point for RAM operations and as a single-bit memory element to store data.

It can also be used in Data Transferring Operations between two sets of buses.As NLV14076BDR2G has two input ports and one output ports, the two input data lines can be used as two output ports of three pairs of CPUs, while the single output port can be used as an input port of one data bus.

NLV14076BDR2G can also be used in Handshaking Signals between two places in order to ensure a successful data transfer. The Handshaking signals consist of a ready/busy signal sent to the sending device from the receiving on confirmation that the receiver is ready to receive data.

Working Principle of NLV14076BDR2G

The working principle of NLV14076BDR2G can be further explained with the help of a timing diagram. In the diagram, D is the Data Input, C is the Clock Input, Q is the Output and Q# is the Complementary Output.

When the Clock (C) input goes high, the DATA (D) input is latched onto the Output (Q). At that point, the Complementary Output (Q#) goes to the opposite state of the Output (Q). When the Clock (C) input goes low again, the data remains latched at the Output (Q) but the Complementary Output (Q#) is reset to its initial state.

Since it is a flop-flop, the data that is stored in the flip-flop will only be changed when the Clock (C) input is triggered. This mechanism of data storage makes NLV14076BDR2G extremely reliable as data corruption or loss can be avoided with the help of appropriate edge detection circuitry.

Conclusion

NLV14076BDR2G is a type of flip flop with two inputs and a single output and has a wide range of applications in both digital systems and in Data Transferring Operations between two sets of buses. Its working principle is based on the concept of latch and it is extremely reliable thanks to the fact that its data is only changed when a Clock Input is triggered.
