Rising Edge vs Falling Edge D Flip-Flops

Is there any difference between a rising edge and a falling edge triggered D flip flop? For example, a falling edge flip flop will be faster or if there will be any change in result. Is it correct for ...

Confusion about when a JK flip flop is triggered

I started learning about latches and flip flops recently, and my understanding is that edge-triggered devices like flip flops ignore their inputs until the clock signal transitions from low to high or ...

Is there an intuitive explanation of the classic edge-triggered flip flop circuit?

I figure there must be a way to understand it in terms of the three underlying latches somehow locking each other out, but I'm not getting it. Is there a way to understand the edge-triggered flip ...

Turn a positive clock edge into a negative pulse to make a 74LS170/670 register file synchronous

This is a follow-up o Why did they make the 74x170 (670) register file asychronous, no CLK input?. I want to use that "register file" for my project, but I need to make it behave properly as a ...

Deciding which assembly is more common positive edge detector

I know of two circuits which can act as edge detector: A clock connected as a voltage source across a RC component where resistance is composed of a diode and a resistor and this in series with ...

Reconize JK Flip-Flop operating edge: rising or falling?

This is a JK Flip-Flop image. Using this image is there a way to know if the output changes on raising or falling clock? In other words, is input data transferred to the outputs on the HIGH-to-LOW ...
