From there, with some size reductions, a Master-Slave J-K Flip Flop, similarly using NAND gates and inverters, can be built. The current state of the project is a working sequencer and counter.

He looked at inverters and NAND gates and a few common circuit configurations. ... The breadboard was just the NAND gate. I did actually have the tiny bypass of 100nF in the breadboard as well.

Standard CMOS gates used in IC design are inverting for a variety of reasons, including lower area and delay compared to the non inverting versions. So, It would be inefficient to use an inverter when ...

The NAND gate is a circuit that outputs '0' when both inputs are '1', and '0' otherwise, so if you arrange the NAND gate as follows, the Invert circuit is completed.

NAND Gates Enable Trigger Lockout For 555 Timers. April 14, 2003. ... If the circuit has to provide falling-edge triggering, an inverter is required at the Trigger input.

Thus, this combination gate can perform both NAND and NOR operations using only four pins. If an inverter is added at the output of the gate, it can operate as an AND and OR combination gate.
