'toggle' in this sort of context means that something switches back and forth between (normally) 2 states — and very often, on successive operation of the same command (button, etc.) — so the first press might (say) turn it on, while pressing the same button again will turn it off again, and so on. In the case of what we seem to have here, which would be logic states 0 or 1 (L/H), when whatever command this is comes along, any outputs (say) previously set to '1' will go to '0', while any that were originally '0' will go to '1'; and we can infer that probably when the next 'pulse' arrives on this same command line, they will all switch back over again.
The simplest example of this is the (now largely obsolete!) J-K flip-flop or 'bistable' (q.v.), which will 'flip' (= switch over) or 'flop' (switch back again) with successive pulses on the trigger input. |
