In a system with 17 unique states, 4 flip-flops are sufficient to represent all states.
In a system with 17 unique states, 4 flip-flops are sufficient to represent all states. In a positive-edge-triggered D flipflop, if the D input is 1 and the clock signal transitions from low to high, Q output is 1. In a master-slave J-K flipflop, when J = 1 and K = 1, it toggles the flipflop’s state.
