  2. Flip-flop (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip-flop_(electronics)

    The D flip-flop is widely used, and known as a "data" flip-flop. The D flip-flop captures the value of the D-input at a definite portion of the clock cycle (such as the rising edge of the clock). That captured value becomes the Q output. At other times, the output Q does not change.

  3. Shift register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_register

    Appearance. A shift register is a type of digital circuit using a cascade of flip-flops where the output of one flip-flop is connected to the input of the next. They share a single clock signal, which causes the data stored in the system to shift from one location to the next. By connecting the last flip-flop back to the first, the data can ...

  4. Static random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_random-access_memory

    v. t. e. Static random-access memory (static RAM or SRAM) is a type of random-access memory (RAM) that uses latching circuitry (flip-flop) to store each bit. SRAM is volatile memory; data is lost when power is removed. The term static differentiates SRAM from DRAM (dynamic random-access memory): SRAM will hold its data permanently in the ...

  5. Synchronous circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_circuit

    Synchronous circuit. In digital electronics, a synchronous circuit is a digital circuit in which the changes in the state of memory elements are synchronized by a clock signal. In a sequential digital logic circuit, data is stored in memory devices called flip-flops or latches. The output of a flip-flop is constant until a pulse is applied to ...

  6. Classic RISC pipeline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic_RISC_pipeline

    The first is a global stall signal. This signal, when activated, prevents instructions from advancing down the pipeline, generally by gating off the clock to the flip-flops at the start of each stage. The disadvantage of this strategy is that there are a large number of flip flops, so the global stall signal takes a long time to propagate.

  7. Hardware register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_register

    In digital electronics, especially computing, hardware registers are circuits typically composed of flip-flops, often with many characteristics similar to memory, such as: [citation needed] The ability to read or write multiple bits at a time, and. Using an address to select a particular register in a manner similar to a memory address.

  8. Linear-feedback shift register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-feedback_shift_register

    For the airport using that ICAO code, see Reims – Champagne Air Base. In computing, a linear-feedback shift register (LFSR) is a shift register whose input bit is a linear function of its previous state. The most commonly used linear function of single bits is exclusive-or (XOR). Thus, an LFSR is most often a shift register whose input bit is ...

  9. Memory cell (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_cell_(computing)

    The memory cell is the fundamental building block of memory. It can be implemented using different technologies, such as bipolar, MOS, and other semiconductor devices. It can also be built from magnetic material such as ferrite cores or magnetic bubbles. [1] Regardless of the implementation technology used, the purpose of the binary memory cell ...
