Abstract

A D-type, master/slave, flip-flop is described for use as a divide-by-2 frequency divider in which a frequency to be divided is input as a clock signal and the Q output is connected to the D input, and in which the master section and the slave section consist only of tracking means, latching being effected by using potentials established on tracking transistors of each section during the previous clock pulse.
