Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A flip flop can store
A
1 bit
B
2 bits
C
4 bits
D
8 bits
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To be exact, a flip-flop is used to store a single binary bit and has two states; one of its two states represents “1”, the other represents “0”. Such data storage is used to store state, and the corresponding circuit is referred to as sequential logic.

Detailed explanation-2: -Data Storage A flip flop store one bit at a time in digital circuit. In order to store more than one bit flip flop can be connected in series and parallel called registers. A register is simply a data storage device for a number of bits in which each flip flop store one bit of information (0 or 1).

Detailed explanation-3: -Flip-flops and latches are used as data storage elements to store a single bit (binary digit) of data; one of its two states represents a “one” and the other represents a “zero". Such data storage can be used for storage of state, and such a circuit is described as sequential logic in electronics.

Detailed explanation-4: -The bit storage capacity of any Flip Flop is 1 bit. It is the fundamental building block of the digital system and is also called a bi-stable multi-vibator. A flip-flop or latch is a device that stores one bit of data (a binary number), One of its two states represents ‘1’ and the other represents ‘0’.

Detailed explanation-5: -A register is a group of flip-flops. – Each flip-flop stores one bit of data; n flip-flops are required to store n bits of data.
