The State Space Mystery with Negative Load in Multiple-Valued Logic
Abstract
Switching sequential circuits are an indispensable part of many modern electronic devices, such as memory cells, flip-flop sensors, and many others. Since the invention of flip-flop switching circuits, the study of their dynamic behaviour has played an ever-increasing role. The dynamic properties of sequential circuits can be investigated by means of switching between the system's attractors. In this paper the boundary surfaces are discussed that play a crucial role in the process of switching.
