+[combinatorial-logic-circuits](notes/combinatorial-logic-circuit.md) always  produce the same outputs given the same input. Sequential curcuits on the other hand, produce different outputs depending on past history and the inputs.

+There are two main types of sequential circuit
+- Sychronous
+	- this is when changes of state occur in time with a clock cycle
+	- changes of input occur between clock pulses
+	- state changes occur at the clock pulses
+- Asynchronous
+	- state changes occur as the inputs occur
+	- event driven

+# Main circuits
+## SR latch
+The set reset latch is the most basic and simple sequential circuit
