7x7x2 stackable per bit, plus 2 more to the width for the write control line. I'd love to see Proper's version of this, if it exists then there should be a thread or a video. Could you link that here? Also, thank you Chibill, you are more than welcome to use this in any of your builds if you just mention my name to give credit.
Gah! Y U DO DIS BILL. I just took a look, and Proper does indeed have an SR latch that is even more truly instant than the dropper SR latch... Both designs save the data instantly, but there is one difference; Proper's also outputs instantly, with no comparator delay. True, this version of an 'instant DFF' is most likely more compact than any you could make using Proper's SR latch and is probably functionally identical in a computer circuit since the data does save instantly. However, it is still true that a DFF using Proper's SR latch would output data faster. Thank you for pointing that out Bill. Though, I will most likely still being using this since it is seemingly more compact and functionally identical.
Also, I just saw his RAM video too, but that was much less optimized than this is. His RAM was 2 ticks to write and 2 ticks to read. I believe that he wanted to avoid using pistons, so he didn't actually manage to create an instant DFF. Although what he had was a pretty compact version of this, it was slower.
