A flip-flop can act as a memory storage device because a flip-flop has one of two states, and it does not change state, so long as power is retained, until told to do so. One flip-flop corresponds to one bit of memory.

Application of register in digital electronics?

A flip-flop is used to store one bit data. If we want to store 2 bit data then we require 2 flip-flops. If we want to store n bit data then we require n flip-flops. Thus , a number of flip-flops which stores n bit data is called as register.
