Topic: Digital Electronics

A 1 MHz clock signal is applied to a J-K Flip-Flop with $J=K=1$. What is the frequency of the Flip-Flop output signal?

  • A. 2 MHz
  • B. 500 kHz
  • C. 260 kHz
  • D. 500 MHz

Answer: B. 500 kHz

Explanation: When $J=K=1$, the J-K flip-flop acts as a toggle flip-flop. It toggles its state on every active clock edge, which divides the input clock frequency by 2.
$f_{out}=\frac{f_{in}}{2}=\frac{10^{6}}{2}\text{ Hz}=500~\text{kHz}$
