D Master-Slave: Internal Node Trace
A negative-edge-triggered master-slave D flip-flop consists of two cascaded latches: a master latch transparent when CLK is HIGH, and a slave latch transparent when CLK is LOW.
Four signals are shown: CLK (clock, period 8), D (input data), QM (internal master latch output, initially 0), and Q (final slave latch output, initially 0).
Trace QM and Q across all 16 time steps.
Constraints
- Master latch
QMis transparent whenCLKis 1 and holds state whenCLKis 0. - Slave latch
Qis transparent whenCLKis 0 and holds state whenCLKis 1.

Place the gates, wire them up and watch the signals settle. Every submission runs on the same simulation engine that grades it.
