Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
On a master-slave flip-flop, when is the master enabled?
A
when the gate is LOW
B
when the gate is HIGH
C
both of the above
D
neither of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Master flip-flop is triggered by the external clock pulse train while the slave is activated at its inversion that is if the master is positive edge-triggered, then the slave is negative-edge triggered.

Detailed explanation-2: -Then, the circuit accepts input data when the clock signal is “HIGH”, and passes the data to the output on the falling-edge of the clock signal. In other words, the Master-Slave JK Flip flop is a “Synchronous” device as it only passes data with the timing of the clock signal.

Detailed explanation-3: -The master flip flop toggles on the clock’s positive transition when the inputs J and K set to 1. At that time, the slave flip flop toggles on the clock’s negative transition. The flip flop will be disabled, and Q remains unchanged when both the inputs of the JK flip flop set to 0.

Detailed explanation-4: -Master-slave J-K flip-flops are called pulse-triggered or level-triggered devices because input data is read during the entire time the clock pulse is at a LOW level.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hence a master slave flip-flop completes its operation only after the appearance of one full clock pulse for which they are known as pulse – triggered flip flops. So, the right answer is option no. B .
