192042964Redhill: H. M. Stationery Office 1920. <p>Patent for the Flip-Flop Circuit the Basis for Electronic Memory </p> <p>Eccles William Henry 1875-1966 and Frank Wilfred Jordan 1882- . Patent specification 148582 . . . improvements in ionic relays. Redhill: Printed for His Majesty's Stationery Office by Love & Malcomson Ltd. 1920. 5pp. Folding plate. Errata slip tipped to first leaf. 267 x 195 mm. Unbound. Light wear along gutter margin and fore-edge but very good. Stamps of the Belgian Bureau voor den Industrieelen Eigendom Bibliotheek. </p> <p>First Edition. On June 21 1918 British physicists William Henry Eccles and Frank Wilfred Jordan professors of engineering at London's City and Guilds Technical College filed a patent for "Improvements in Ionic Relays"—the first flip-flop circuit. The device originally called the Eccles-Jordan trigger circuit consisted of two active elements vacuum tubes. The schematic drawing illustrating Eccles and Jordan's patent shows two flip-flops "one drawn as a cascade of amplifiers with a positive feedback path and the other as a symmetric cross-coupled pair" Wikipedia. The patent specification no. 148582 was first published in 1920. </p> <p>Early flip-flops were known variously as trigger circuits or multivibrators. A flip-flop circuit has two stable states and as Claude Shannon pointed out in his Mathematical Theory of Communication 1948 can be used to store one bit of information. Flip-flop circuits operate using Boolean algebra AND OR NOT. Prior to the invention of electronic computing Eccles and Jordan viewed their invention as a "method of relaying or magnifying in electrical circuits for use in telegraphy and telephony." However with the invention of electronic computing that used vacuum tubes as switches flip-flops became the basic storage element in sequential logic used in digital circuitry and the basis for electronic memory. In September 1919 Eccles and Jordan described the flip-flop in a brief one-page paper "A trigger relay utilizing three-electrode thermionic vacuum tubes" The Electrician 83 September 19 1919 p. 298. However the patent filed the previous year and consisting of 5 pages plus illustration remains the first description of this invention. Very rare. </p> . H. M. Stationery Office unknown books
