JK Flip-Flop: Toggle Input Stable Value Governs Behavior

MediumLogic CircuitTiming Diagram

A positive-edge-triggered JK flip-flop toggles its output when both inputs are HIGH at the clock edge and holds its value when both are LOW.

Four signals are shown: CLK (clock, period 2), J (input), K (input), and Q (output, initially 0).

Trace Q across all 14 time steps.

Constraints

  • The output Q updates only on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLK.
  • Mid-cycle changes in J and K do not affect Q unless they persist until the next rising clock edge.

Solve this problem

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