Yout have got a 74LS76 and not a 74LS76A haven't you? The truth tables are quite different and with an A variant the K and J values are ignored by the second stage. Screenshot_20240416_121850.jpeg P.S. Putting a logic analyser onto U64 pins 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11 would be useful as the relative timing o...
