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.
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 static qualifier differentiates SRAM from dynamic random-access memory (DRAM):

At each advance, the bit on the far left (i.e. "data in") is shifted into the first flip-flop's output. The bit on the far right (i.e. "data out") is shifted out and lost. The data is stored after each flip-flop on the "Q" output, so there are four storage "slots" available in this arrangement, hence it is a 4-bit register.
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 ...

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. [3]
