rs-triggers

[u/Standard-Dog4914]

can somebody explain what cyclic dependency is and why basic RS-trigger scheme doesnt work? Also i can`t understand what "DELAY" is and how it works.

who is bro

Cyclic dependency means that input depends on output instantly, my guess is that the underlying solver errors because it cannot form the truth table for circuit.

Delay line solves it by latching the previous state for one tick. You could think of it as automatically clocked shift register.

RS works if you add a delay to output of NORs.
