AI Thread Summary
The user is attempting to recreate a JK flip-flop in DSCH3.5 but is struggling with multiple designs that do not function as expected. They successfully created a D flip-flop, indicating familiarity with the software. After troubleshooting, they discovered that adding an input button between two NAND gates resolved the issue. The user expressed confusion over the initial wiring but ultimately found a solution. This experience highlights the importance of careful circuit design and troubleshooting in digital simulations.

Hi, I'm using DSCH3.5 and I'm trying to build a JK latch. I've found 3 different designs online (which confuses me) and I've recreated them in the software but they aren't functioning at all. Does anyone know what's going on? I'm losing a lot of sleep over this I must be doing something silly.

I'll add that I created a D flip flop and it works fine. Sorry about the messy wiring on the JK above, it was the third time I had made it.

I figured it out. I had to put an input button on the inner part of the circuit bwt the two NAND gates (with the wires crossing) onto one of the lines. I'm not sure why but it works.

Thread 'Why does the amperage go real high if there is a low voltage short?'

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...

Thread 'How Does Jaguar's 1980s V12 Dual Coil Ignition System Enhance Spark Strength?'

I have come across a dual coil ignition system as used by Jaguar on their V12 in the 1980's. It uses two ignition coils with their primary windings wired in parallel. The primary coil has its secondary winding wired to the distributor and then to the spark plugs as is standard practice. However, the auxiliary coil has it secondary winding output sealed off. The purpose of the system was to provide a stronger spark to the plugs, always a difficult task with the very short dwell time of a...
