T-Flip Flops And Monostable Circuits EXPLAINED!
A video explaining how monostable circuits work.
A monostable circuit is a simple circuit that converts a sustained signal into a short pulse. These are useful for button-activated machines and machines where you want the same action performed whether a switch is flipped on or off.
There are three types of monostable circuits:
- Rising-edge monostable circuits send a pulse when their input changes from off to on. These can be made by directing the input signal into a sticky piston pushing an observer with some redstone dust on the output side of the observer when the sticky piston is extended, so when the observer is moved, it gives a redstone signal, but only when the sticky piston is extended.
- Falling-edge monostable circuits send a pulse when their input changes from on to off. These can be made exactly like the rising-edge circuits, except that the redstone dust of the output signal is where the output side of the observer would be when the piston is retracted, not extended like the rising edge.
- Dual-edge monostable circuits send a pulse when their input changes from off to on, or on to off. These are the simplest to make. Just put an observer in front of the input signal, and make sure the input signal is not a 1-tick pulse, as it will do nothing in that case.
