When a so-called set-reset flip-flop is configured with a current switching type logic circuit, which can arbitrarily transition to a set or reset state by inputting a set signal and a reset signal, the circuit shown in Fig. 1 has been conventionally used. . The operation of the set-reset flip-flop of the conventional circuit shown in FIG. 1 will be briefly explained. First, when the set signal S is at the "H" level and the reset signal R is at the "L" level, the transistor Q A is turned on and the transistor Q D is turned on.
is turned OFF, and the current of the constant current source I O flows through the transistor
Mainly QA . Therefore, due to the voltage drop across the load resistor R L1 , a "L" level is output to the complementary output, whereas since no voltage drop occurs across the load resistor R L2 , a "H" level is output to the true value output OUT. In other words, it is in a "set" state. Next, when the set input S and reset input R both go to "L" level from the above state, the transistor
Q A changes from ON to OFF.

On the other hand, the base of the transistor Q B is connected to the load resistor R L2 , which is at the "H" level in the previous state.
Since it is connected to the transistor QB, it is in the ON state, and all other transistors are OFF, so the current from the constant current source IO flows only through the transistor QB .

Therefore, current continues to flow through the load resistor R L1 ,
The previous state is retained. In other words, the data is held. Furthermore, only the reset input “R” is “H”
In contrast to the operation described above, the current is R L2
→ Q D → I O , the complementary output is "H" and the true value output OUT is "L", resulting in a "reset" state.

The circuit shown in Fig. 1 has advantages such as a simple configuration and a wide usable power supply range because it has only one type of logic level, that is, it is not a so-called vertical configuration.
Since the threshold for set and reset signals is the "H" level of the output potential, high-speed operation and LSI
There is a drawback that the reliability of setting or resetting decreases when the signal amplitude is attenuated due to the passage of internal wiring.

Here, when the set signal terminal S transitions to a high level, the base potential of the transistor Q2, that is, the voltage value of the reference voltage source V R is set as the threshold, and the transistor Q1 turns "ON", and the current of the constant current source I O teeth,
Load resistor R L1 switches through transistor Q1, so that the potential at the collector of transistor Q4 decreases, while the potential at the collector of transistor Q5 increases. At this time, as shown in the same figure, the emitter follower Q is connected to the collectors of transistors Q4 and Q5.
6 and Q7 are connected, and their respective emitters are set to complementary output and true value output OUT, respectively, a set state is obtained in which the true value output potential is at a high level and the complementary output potential is at a low level.

Since the setting and reset accuracy is exactly the same as that of a normal gate, stable operation is possible compared to the conventional circuit. Further, the number of constituent elements is only that the transistor Q2 is added, and the power consumption is exactly the same as the conventional circuit because only one constant current source is used.
