I teach a high school Digital Electronics course. I'm not an EE, mostly self taught and am relatively new to the topic. We have covered combinational and sequential logic and are working on state machines. We did an exercise with JK flip flops and now we are working another using D flip flops. The analysis is easier with the D flip flops because it is not necessary to create the table of JK values for each flip/flop based on the state transition (i.e. the state transition can be used directly for a D F/F).
While we were talking about the process the question came up about why you would ever use JK F/Fs if the analysis for Ds is easier. So I thought I would pose the question here.
Any thoughts?
