1. Stable state: A stable state is a state in which the circuit remains until an external trigger is applied.

A quasi-stable state is a state that lasts for a finite period of time before changing to the other state.

a state in which the circuit continuously switches back and forth between two quasi-stable states.

A circuit which generates square wave on it’s own is called Astable multivibrator or free running multivibrator.

A mulitivibrator in which one transistor is always conducting i.e. remains in ON state and the other is non conducting.

A multivibrator in which both the states are stable is called bistable multivibrator.
