  • Question
  • A positive edge-triggered J-K flip-flop is used to produce a two-phase clock. However, when the circuit is operated it produces erratic results. Close examination with a scope reveals the presence of glitches. What causes the glitches, and how might the problem be corrected?


  • Options
  • A. The PRESET and CLEAR terminals may have been left floating; they should be properly terminated if not being used.
  • B. The problem is caused by a race condition between the J and K inputs; an inverter should be inserted in one of the terminals to correct the problem.
  • C. A race condition exists between the Q and Q outputs to the AND gate; the AND gate should be replaced with a NAND gate.
  • D. A race condition exists between the clock and the outputs of the flip-flop feeding the AND gate; replace the flip-flop with a negative edge-triggered J-K Flip-Flop.

  • Correct Answer
  • A race condition exists between the clock and the outputs of the flip-flop feeding the AND gate; replace the flip-flop with a negative edge-triggered J-K Flip-Flop.
