Functions 
Monostable-Single  shot multivibrator. Output becomes active when the input be- 
comes active. Output remains active (even if the input becomes inactive) for a period 
of  time that is characteristic of the device  and/or  circuit. 
Oscillator-The  output is a uniform repetitive signal which alternates between the 
high and low state values. 
If 
an input is shown, then the output will be active if an 
only  if the  input is in the active state. 
Flip-Flop-Binary  element with 
two 
stable states, set and reset. When the flip-flop 
is 
set, its outputs will be 
in 
their active states. When the flip-flop is reset, its outputs 
will  be  in their  inactive states. 
Toggle Input-When  active, causes the  flip-flop to change states. 
Set  Input-When  active, causes the flip-flop to set. 
Reset Input-When  active, causes the  flip-flop to reset. 
J 
Input-Analogous  to set input. 
K 
Input-Analogous  to reset input. 
Data Input-Always  enabled by another input (generally a 
C 
input-see  Dependency 
Notation). When the  D input 
is 
dependency-enabled,  a high level at 
D 
will set the 
flip-flop; a low level will reset the flip-flop. Note: strictly speaking, 
D 
inputs have no 
active or  inactive states-they  are just enabled or disabled. 
Count-Up Input-When  active.  increments the contents (count) of a counter by 
”m” 
counts (m  is replaced with a number). 
Count-Down Input-When  active, decrements the contents (count) of  a counter by 
“m” 
counts (m  is replaced with 
a 
number). 
Shift Right (Down) Input-When  active,  causes the  contents of a shift register to 
shift to the right or  down “m”  places 
(rn 
is replaced with a number). 
Shift Left (Up) Input-When  active, causes the  contents of a shift register to shift 
to 
the left or up “m”  places 
(m 
is replaced with 
a 
number). 
NOTE 
For  the four  functions  shown 
above, 
if 
in 
is 
one, 
it 
is 
omitted. 
The following functional labels are to be used as necessary in symbol build-ups to 
ensure rapid identification of device function. 
Counter-Array  of flip-flops connected to form a counter with modules 
m 
(m 
is re- 
placed with a number that indicates the number 
of 
states: 
5 
CNTR, 
10 
CNTR, etc.).
