Best Answer
As per wikipedia, all you need to do is connect
K
to the inverse ofJ
.Doing this effectively removes the possibility of
00
and11
inputs. If theJ
is treated asD
then:D
= 1 setsQ
D
= 0 resetsQ
This behaviour is then identical to the
D
flip-flop.For this reason the
JK
flip-flop is called the universal flip-flop, because you can construct all other flip-flop types with it.
