JK FLIP FLOP EXTENSION.
According to the University Study Paper from what I can still recall:
Study revealed that very little research have been carried out on Flip Flops comparative analysis in the 100%, 87.5% and 75% active states utilization on digital device applications. In this university paper, a new approach of designing memory element (Flip Flop) with its active states utilization of 100% as against the conventional Flip Flops at 50% and 75% active states utilization which will enhance memory performance have been developed. This is evidence where the Flip Flop Extensions at 87.5% active states utilization is designed with one gate less than the conventional JK-Flip Flop. The uniqueness of this study is that computer memory speed performance can be enhanced through conventional JK-FF modification just as it is currently being done with its processor counterpart. This is a great advantage in performance over the conventional Flip Flops because fewer gates enhance performance. Efforts should be geared towards verifying the effectiveness and efficiency of these newly design Flip Flops Extension over the existing conventional Flip Flops.
My own conclusion:
Although this newly designed JK Flip Flip Extention to the conventional JK Flip Flop may be more efficient and faster, I do not understand how they can claim that this new JK Flip flip Extention has any "memory" since it do not remember any of its states. It does have one more state than the conventional JK Flip Flop in that when both the "J" and "K" terminals are made "Low" then it also "Toggles" otherwise it acts exactly like the conventional JK Flip Flop except for remembering its states.
Unfortunately I don't have the university paper anymore and cannot remember from which university the paper comes. I wonder if this can be useful in any way, maybe, but not as memory.
Caution: For the above mentioned reasons, do NOT use this thing in place of conventional JK Flip Flop. I have uploaded it here only for the sake of interest.
