MARKING GUIDELINE-7LOGIC SYSTEMS N3T870(E)(A5)TQUESTION 55.11.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10.Bit 0 is entered into the data input line. D1 0, first clock pulse isapplied, FF1 is reset and stores 0. Next bit 1 is entered. Q1 0, since Q1 is connected to D2, D2becomes 0. Second clock pulse is applied, the 1 on the input line is shifted intoFF1 because FF1 sets. The 0 which was stored in FF1 is shiftedinto FF2. Next bit 0 is entered and third clock pulse applied. 0 is entered intoFF1, 1 stored in FF1 is shifted to FF2 and 0 stored in FF2 is shiftedto FF3. Last bit 1 is entered and 4th clock pulse applied. 1 is entered intoFF1, 0 stored in FF1 is shifted to FF2, 1 stored in FF2 is shiftedto FF3 and 0 stored in FF3 is shifted to FF4. This completes theserial entry of 4-bit data into the register. Now the LSB 0 is on theoutput Q4. Clock pulse 5 is applied. LSB 0 is shifted out. The next bit 1appears on Q4 output. Clock pulse 6 is applied. The 1 on Q4 is shifted out and 0 appearson Q4 output. Clock pulse 7 is applied. 0 on Q4 is shifted out. Now 1 appears onQ4 output. Clock pulse 8 is applied. 1 on Q4 is shifted out. When the bits are being shifted out (on CLK pulse 5 to 8) moredata bits can be entered. (12)5.2OR
