From the truth table, it's not a flip flop - unless the table is incomplete. I guess you could call it a gatable buffer with complementary output. I don't know of any ICs that have that function off the top of my head.
Thanks guys.
If its not a Flip-Flop, then how is such device called so i could find it in Mouser, Digikey and such.
Colin, could you please post a link to TE555's datasheet?
I cant seem to find it.
@Vne
Its actually the exact implementation of the truth table i posted, so its great.
@Eric
Its just the IC i was looking for.
Is it possible to find such IC in a smaller package?
Since I only need only 4 pins after all (2 inputs and two outputs), as drawn by Vne.

There have been a lot of overkill applications posted for a micro-controller but suggesting that it be used to perform a 2 input static logic function is the biggest overkill I've seen so far.

Sheesh. I'll agree that a PIC can do MUCH more than what he needs but what's the difference between using an 8 pin 60 cent PIC over a 16 pin 40 cent logic IC? Unless he's making hundreds of these things, there isn't one in my opinion.
He expressed a desire for something in a smaller package and the PIC is one answer. I don't understand this urge to use a micro-controller only when it's absolutely necessary. It's so cheap, small, and easy to program...who cares!?! And I also did offer a logic IC solution first albeit not nearly as neat as Eric's answer.
Alpha, there is nothing wrong with using a PIC for this if you know how to and are so inclined. Good luck with your project.
Firstly a micro costs 33 cents.
Secondly, it will replace 3 chips
Thirdly, it will prevent a lot of others from trying to copy a design.
and fourthly, it will allow you to charge a higher fee for your design.
I have been cheated so many times by customers.
They request a design on the understanding that a payment will be determined over the lifetime of the product. They then go and copy the design and pay practically nothing.
I have found a micro stops them in their tracks.
There has never been a case where a micro has not been the best choice to prevent industrial theft.
However in this case, 3 simple IC's is best for a single application.
