Questions and Answers

Which of the following statements best describes an asynchronous digital system?

  • It is difficult to design and troubleshoot because the output can change states anytime one or more of the inputs change (correct)
  • It is easy to design and troubleshoot because the output state is independent of the inputs
  • it is difficult to design and troubleshoot because the output cannot change states unless a clock input is syrchmnized to the SET and CLEAR inputs.
  • is easy to design and troubleshoot because the exact times at which the output can change states is determined by a clock signal

As a general rule for stable flip-flop triggering, the clock pulse rise and fall times must be

  • at a maximum value to enable the input control signals to stabilize.
  • very short (correct)
  • of to consequence as long as the levels are within the determinate range of values
  • very long

The asynchronous transfer of data between I-K storage registers can easily be accomplished using the:

  • Clock and the input J-K control signal.
  • J-K control signals only
  • PRESET and CLEAR inputs only. (correct)
  • Clock with the PRESET and CLEAR inputs.
