rising edge detector

Hi
I have three digital inputs (0-5V) and i want to detect the rising edge of each signal and determine which one was set logic high (5V) last

Unfortunately i cannot use a simple processor and I must use logic gates, flip flops, etc

I cant figure out quite how to do this and would appreciate any suggestions :)

Best Regards
Maz

Why not? It would be easier to do this with software. Is this an assignment requirement?
 
detect rising edge

Yes i agree software would be easier, but i have just started doing a 3 month internship at an electronics company and I was asked to develop this circuit.

They cannot use reporgrammable logic devices (somehting to do with insurance and approvals)
 

rising edge detector circuit

This is simple edge detection circuit.

The invertor on output is connected to aynchronous clear input, so you will get a short impulse on output as input signal goes high... It will look something like this:

So you need 3 Dff and 3 iinverters.
 
edge detection circuit

Thanks for the advice but the difficulty in this matter is that I need to determine which of the three signals was set high last?
.......... ____________
in1___|
..............____________
in2_____|
.....................____________
in3_______|

Thus i need a means of knowing input 3 was set high last?

Does signals when they rise stay high?
 

rising edge detection in dsp

I actually considered this and thought of using an integrator but the signal does not necessarily stay high.
 

rise edge detector

I think this circuit will help you.

it is very easy to understand.

there are rc filters to detect a rising edge for each input, and the sr flip-flop remembers which input was last pressed. there are 3 outputs, each one indicates which was last pressed.

You can use something like this:


STOP can be generated with edge detectors from my previous post.
 

signal detect edge

Thanks alot guys. rc filters and the sr flip flops are relevent to what I need.
