Sequential logic circuits
What Sequential logic circuits means in Physics A-Level, as defined for AQA.
Definition of Sequential logic circuits
Check what you remember
Read the wording for your board, then hide it and explain Sequential logic circuits in your own words. Rough notes are fine. This is a self-check, with no mark or grade.
Reference: AQA
Circuits that produce outputs depending on present inputs and stored past states, so reading outputs means tracking how each stage changes over time.
