  1. Which of the following condition must be met to avoid race around problem where, tp is propagation delay of the NAND gate, Δt is pulse width and T is period of pulse train?

    Condition to avoid race around problem:

    where, Δt = Pulse width
    T = Period of pulse
    2tp = Propagation delay of two NAND gates or flip-flop.
    It may be noted that tp is the propagation delay of one gate. However any flip-flop made up of 4 NAND gates or NOR gates, and any input passes through 2 gates, that's why here we must take 2tp propagation delay.
