  1. I

    The functional difference between an S-R flip-flop and a J-K flip-flop is that

    aJ-K flip-flop is faster than S-R flip-flopbJ-K flip-flop has a feedback pathcJ-K flip-flop accepts both inputs equals to 1dJ-K flip-flop does not require external clockFree sample

    Answer: c) J-K flip-flop accepts both inputs equals to 1

    Explanation

    The primary functional improvement of a J-K flip-flop over an S-R flip-flop is that it resolves the undefined/invalid state condition when both inputs are high (1). When J=1 and K=1, the J-K flip-flop simply toggles its previous output state.
