SR Latch

An SR latch stores one bit using set and reset inputs. The set input requests one output state, while reset requests the opposite state; after either input is released, the latch retains its last valid state. Q and Q-bar provide complementary outputs. Unlike a flip-flop, a basic SR latch is not edge-triggered, so its inputs must be controlled carefully. This diagram is useful for introducing bistable logic, interlocks and simple state retention. Avoid the prohibited input combination for the chosen NOR or NAND implementation.

図の背後にある意思決定を読み解く。

01Set input

Set requests Q high.

02Reset input

Reset requests Q low.

03Complementary outputs

Q and Q-bar expose the stored state.

Use this to explain basic latch behavior before clocked flip-flops.

よくある質問

よくある質問

What does an SR latch store?

It stores one binary state until a set or reset input changes it.

Is an SR latch edge-triggered?

A basic SR latch is level-sensitive, not edge-triggered.

Why are Q and Q-bar both shown?

They show the stored state and its complement.
