Figure 1. SR latch circuit and truth table

The set-reset latch is a circuit that stores a value in a bistable circuit using two NOR gates. It is the fundamental building block for memory cells.

An enabler can be integrated with AND gates. By fluctuating the enabler at set time intervals, we get a clocked D-latch.
