Homework Statement


I am preparing for my final and I am stuck on the following question
Homework problem text: a JK flip-flop A used by a CPU for micro-operations xT1: A←0 (reset A to 0), yT2: A←1 (set A to 1), vT3: A←1 (set A to 1), with otherwise A unchanged, followed by the task to draw the control circuit logic diagram.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


My best guess would be to make some kind of next state table, but I don't understand the relationship between xT1, yT2, yT3 and any kind of table.

I'll take a wild guess. Other opinions are welcome.

T1, T2 and T3 are non-overlapping signals.
x, y and v are some sort of control logic signals.

When T1 goes HIGH it allows the value of x if high to cause the F-F to reset to LOW
When T2 goes HIGH it allows the value of y if high to make the F-F output HIGH
When T3 goes HIGH it allows the value of v if high to make the F-F output HIGH

Your task: design the arrangement of extra gates you need around the standard JK F-F to achieve this with these 6 inputs.
