Ans: a and d

2. Which of the following statements is/are true?
a. A flip-flop is a level-sensitive storage element
b. A latch is a level-sensitive storage element
c. A latch is triggered both at the positive as well as the negative edges of a clock.
d. A flip flop is triggered either at the positive edge or at the negative edge of a clock.

Ans: b and d

3.Why is S=R=1 considered an invalid input in a S-R flip flop?
a. The value of Q cannot be predicted when S=R=1 is applied.
b. The value of Q cannot be predicted when we apply S=R=0 after the application of S=R=1.

b. The amount of time the input to the flip flop must be stable before the active clock edge appears.
c. The amount of time the input to the flip flop must be stable after the active clock edge appears.
d. None of these

Ans: c

9. The number of T flip-flops required to divide the frequency of a given clock signal by 64 is ………..

Ans: 6

10. What is meant by dynamic hazard in a combinational circuit in response to some changes in the input values?
a. There is a momentary transition in the output, but the initial and final output values are the same.
b. There is a momentary transition in the output, but the initial and final output values are the different.
c. There is a short circuit in the output that may lead to hazardous situation.
d. None of these.

Ans: b
