This set of Digital Electronics/Circuits Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Realisation of one Flip-flop using other Flip-flops”.
1. To realise one flip-flop using another flip-flop along with a combinational circuit, known as ____________
a) PREVIOUS state decoder
b) NEXT state decoder
c) MIDDLE state decoder
d) PRESENT state decoder
View Answer
Explanation: To realise one flip-flop using another flip-flop along with a combinational circuit, known as NEXT state decoder which acts as like a flip-flop.
2. For realisation of JK flip-flop from SR flip-flop, the input J and K will be given as ___________
a) External inputs to S and R
b) Internal inputs to S and R
c) External inputs to combinational circuit
d) Internal inputs to combinational circuit
View Answer
Explanation: If a JK Flip Flop is required, the inputs are given to the combinational circuit and the output of the combinational circuit is connected to the inputs of the actual flip flop. So, J and K will be given as external inputs to S and R. As SR flip-flop have invalid state and JK flip-flop don’t.
3. For realisation of JK flip-flop from SR flip-flop, if J=0 & K=0 then the input is ___________
a) S=0, R=0
b) S=0, R=X
c) S=X, R=0
d) S=X, R=X
View Answer
Explanation: If J=0 & K=0, the output will be as: Q(n)=0, Q(n+1)=0 and it is fed into both the AND gates which results as S=0 & R=X(i.e. don’t care).

4. For realisation of JK flip-flop from SR flip-flop, if J=1, K=0 & present state is 0(i.e. Q(n)=0) then excitation input will be ___________
a) S=0, R=1
b) S=X, R=0
c) S=1, R=0
d) S=1, R=1
View Answer
Explanation: If J=1, K=0 & present state is 0(i.e. Q(n)=0) then next state will be 1 which results excitation inputs as S=1 & R=0.

5. For realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop, the excitation input will be obtained from ___________
a) S and R
b) R input
c) J and K input
d) D input
View Answer
Explanation: It is the reverse process of SR flip-flop to JK flip-flop. So, for realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop, the excitation input will be obtained from J and K.
6. For realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop, if S=1, R=0 & present state is 0 then next state will be ___________
a) 1
b) 0
c) Don’t care
d) Toggle
View Answer
Explanation: For JK flip-flop to SR flip-flop, if S=1, R=0 & present state is 0 then next state will be 1 because next stage is complement of present stage.

7. For realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop, if S=1, R=0 & present state is 0 then the excitation input will be ___________
a) J=1, K=1
b) J=X, K=1
c) J=1, K=X
d) J=0, K=0
View Answer
Explanation: For realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop, if S=1, R=0 & present state is 0 then the excitation input will be J=1, K=X.

8. The K-map simplification for realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop is ___________
a) J=1, K=0
b) J=R, K=S
c) J=S, K=R
d) J=0, K=1
View Answer
Explanation: The K-map simplification for realisation of SR flip-flop from JK flip-flop is given by: J=S, K=R.
9. For realisation of D flip-flop from SR flip-flop, the external input is given through ___________
a) S
b) R
c) D
d) Both S and R
View Answer
Explanation: For realisation of D flip-flop from SR flip-flop, S and R are the actual inputs of the flip flop which is connected together via NOT gate and it is called external input as D.
10. For D flip-flop to JK flip-flop, the characteristics equation is given by ___________
a) D=JQ(p)’+Q(p)K’
b) D=JQ(p)’+KQ(p)’
c) D=JQ(p)+Q(p)K’
d) D=J’Q(p)+Q(p)K
View Answer
Explanation: A characteristic equation is needed when a specific gate requires a specific output in order to satisfy the truth table. For D flip-flop to JK flip-flop, the characteristics equation is given by D=JQ(p)’+Q(p)K’.
