RS-latch

An RS-latch is a circuit that stores which of its inputs was last "on". It has typically two inputs: input reset storing value "0" and input set storing value "1", hence the name. It can have multiple outputs, which typically differ mostly in their behavior when multiple inputs are "on" at the same time.

value table
inputs outputs
reset set output1 (previous) output2 (previous) output1 output2
0 0 x y y x
0 1 x y 0 0
1 0 x y 1 1
1 1 x y 0 1

It is possible to define a variant with more than two values. The values stored need not necessarily be 0 and 1.

Connectors

  • Enabled: if 1, store data, else do nothing.
  • Data: input
  • Output: stored value

Using Logic Select Unit and Logic Reader

An RS-Latch implemented using two Logic Select Units and two Logic Memory units

This d-latch can store any value. It works in two steps:

  1. a Logic Select Unit determines whether to store the last output or the "data" input using the "enabled" input. i.e.
      if enabled
      then store = data
      else store = output
  2. a Logic Reader mirrors the value to be stored and feeds it back into the select unit so it can circulate (effectively being stored). This would be obsolete if the select unit could read its own output.
      output = store


Circuit setup
Unit name Unit type Connector / Setting Source / Value
select 1 Logic Select Unit select enabled (input)
0 (input 1) reader 1
1 (input 2) data (input)
reader 1 Logic Reader in select 1
var setting
out output (output)
