A digital logic circuit containing feedback, in which outputs depend not only on present values of inputs but also on past values. Sequential logic is used to implement state. Contrast with "combinatorial logic", where outputs depend only on present values of inputs, and there is no feedback.

How can I output a sequence of bits using only simple discrete components?
My degree had given me some electrical engineering basics, and I like to keep studying it in my spare time. I would like to achieve something with electronics, which is why I am asking here instead of programming a microprocessor for the purpose.
A…

Sequential Circuit Design
Here is a simplified version of what I am hoping to do:
I have two switches and a light. Both switches are momentary (spring return) buttons. I want the light to only turn on while the left button is being held down, BUT when the left button is…

Sequential circuit: What does state mean exactly?
I have read some posts like:
What is state in a sequential circuit? about explaining what a state is in the sequential logic circuit. But the responses are pretty much the same as those ones in my textbook and I still don't understand what it is…

Why does my sequential circuit keep getting 1111?
I have an assignment to create circuit on this website called Circuitverse
The question was to design 4-bit counter circuit with 1 external input using D flip flops, whereby when input=0, count sequence is 8->14->9->5 (repeat), push the undesired…

Why does my sequential circuit keep getting one wrong bit at the final state
I have an assignment to design a sequential circuit using T Flip-Flops that travels through the following states (0010, 1001, 0011, 0001, 0100 then repeats again.) I am designing this circuit using the website called "CircuitVerse." I made a circuit…

How do Sequential circuits exactly work?
Currently I am trying to learn more about computer architecture. I seem to understand the concept of sequential circuits but there is one thing I cant understand and I cannot find any info on it
Lets say we have a Latch with NAND gates, my question…
