I have been having trouble understanding the way a T Flip Flop works, is there a good resource or video that explains the inner workings of such a circuit?

Yeah, it is what is known as a T Flip-Flop. This guy gives a pretty decent explanation of how to set one up:
You can also try this Minecraft wiki link for the design: <snippy>
Thanks alot, I havent watched the video yet but I can tell from that picture that its a BrenyBeast Tutorial! I love him so much. Homosexually and heterosexually! Thanks alot btw I didnt know what it was called so didnt know he had a tut. Great guide and I love to check it out every day to see how much youve improved it =3
Far and away the best basic redstone guide I have seen. I think this should replace the redstone video (by Wizard I believe) as a true "digital diamond".
I do not know how in-depth your redstone knowledge is, but if you could present a more advanced guide through redstone in the same sort of format (and being just as informative :smile.gif:) I think a lot of the users of the forums would appreciate such a thing.
As far as this being a "basic guide" or becoming an "advanced guide", I really wish there to be no distinct jumps between the presented knowledge. I will progressively teach more, as I myself learn more and can explain it to someone satisfactorily.
How would the wiring differ if I were to flip the light switch design upside down, so the light block would come up into the floor? I'm trying it out currently, but am having trouble laying the current so that it all hits the same.
Hi to whoever is reading this. This is my own attempt at a Redstone guide that is both easy to understand and accessible, and isn't similar to the all but impossible to read one on Minecraft Wiki. I have paroozed ...
this is a great guide for any redstone beginners! the one on the wiki is great and all-encompassing but seems like it's written for people that already have technical knowledge. i like how you try to explain how each circuit works in simple terms, but things like the t flip-flop cannot be simplified beyond a certain point. i was pretty relaxed reading the whole guide until i got to that part where you tried to explain it xD
suggestions:
-mention how you can invert the xor gate to make an xnor gate. xnor, although not used too much, is one of the six basic logic gates and deserves to be there.
-explain how the 5-clock works and why clock generators with even pulsewidth are impossible without special wiring
-explain the rapid pulsar, my favorite mechanism (cause it makes machine guns!)
-d flipflop and jk flipflop should be included in this level of redstone engineering. though t flipflop has an easy-to-understand function, d flipflop is actually easier to build, and jk flipflop is almost identical.

Hahaha. God yeah, I was worried my TFF explanation was too ridiculous. Believe it or not, that was my shortened version hah. I will try and work on it. As for the XNOR, clocks, and other flip flops, I will get the additional gate explanations up as soon as I can. Thanks for your comments, they are much appreciated!
Good guide, but it's also important to teach people the extremely smaller versions of latches and logic gates and flip flops as well. Other wise you are giving people the knowledge to build very complex things, but they will be either so big, so slow, or both so big and so slow that they aren't worth the work. Smaller designs should be taught after people understand the basics of redstone that way they already know how to use the designs, and can now do so on a much smaller scale.
Thank you very much for this :smile.gif:
Now beginners like me understand what people mean by clocks and other terms that people use in redstone tutorials :biggrin.gif:
So I found a new design of the AND, XOR, and XNOR gates using pistons.
I figured they would be a good edition to the guide here. I believe they are a little smaller, depending on your projects that need them. They do occasionally get the burnout issue if you send an alternating signal too fast.

High-Five!
Updated! :biggrin.gif:
Glad to hear it man!
The word should be "perused".
I really don't want to be a spelling and grammar bully, but that tripped my threshold. Sorry.

And since pistons came out, I finally decided to delve into redstone mechanisms.

Hope this helps a few people. Also I think these are a little easier to make, maybe not who knows.
Also trying to work on a smaller T Flip-Flop gate using pistons, coming up empty so far though.
Good guide btw.
Edit: I forgot, they also seem to be slightly faster in some cases, not all, but some.
