Question

When the READ/(WRITE)’ line is HIGH then the flip-flop is ____________

(a) Activated

(b) Deactivated

(c) Unaffected

(d) Both activated and deactivated

I got this question during an online exam.

I need to ask this question from Random Access Memory topic in chapter Memory Devices of Digital Circuits

Answer 1

Right option is (c) Unaffected

To elaborate: When the READ/(WRITE)’ line is HIGH then the flip-flop is unaffected since it’s an active low pin. It means that the stored bit (data) is gated to the data out line.
