The term flip-flop has historically referred generically to both level-triggered (asynchronous, transparent, or opaque) and edge-triggered (synchronous, or clocked) circuits that store a single bit of data using gates. [1] Modern authors reserve the term flip-flop exclusively for edge-triggered storage elements and latches for level-triggered ones.
Flip-flop and latch are not the same; so, they deserve separate pages (as it is). Flip-flop and latch are closely related; so, the two pages have to be closely related as well. The latch precedes chronologically the flip-flop. Eccles and Jordan have invented a latch, not a flip-flop; so, the data about their patent have to be placed on Latch.

A multivibrator is an electronic circuit used to implement a variety of simple two-state [1] [2] [3] devices such as relaxation oscillators, timers, latches and flip-flops. The first multivibrator circuit, the astable multivibrator oscillator, was invented by Henri Abraham and Eugene Bloch during World War I. It consisted of two vacuum tube ...

Flip-flop excitation tables [ edit ] In order to complete the excitation table of a flip-flop , one needs to draw the Q(t) and Q(t + 1) for all possible cases (e.g., 00, 01, 10, and 11), and then make the value of flip-flop such that on giving this value, one shall receive the input as Q(t + 1) as desired.
An asynchronous (ripple) counter is a "chain" of toggle (T) flip-flops in which the least-significant flip-flop (bit 0) is clocked by an external signal (the counter input clock), and all other flip-flops are clocked by the output of the nearest, less significant flip-flop (e.g., bit 0 clocks the bit 1 flip-flop, bit 1 clocks the bit 2 flip ...
If the output of the flip-flop is low, and a high clock pulse is applied with the input being a low pulse, then there is no need for a state transition. The extra computation to sample the inputs cause an increase in setup time of the flip-flop; this is a disadvantage of this technique.
