Registers vs. Latches vs. Flip-Flops

This is one of the areas that can be a bit subjective, depending on one’s background, further confused by the fact that the terminology has evolved over time. It’s funny how you think you know ...

Latches and timing closure: a mixed bag

Digital blocks contain combinational andsequential circuits. Sequential circuits are thestorage cells with outputs that reflect the pastsequence of their input values, whereas the outputof the ...

Thorough validation: the conundrum of Pulsed latch libraries turned practical as Spinner systems

Using pulsed latches instead of flip-flops is a solution that has been thoroughly studied for its advantages in speed, density, and power consumption reduction [1] [2]. Even so, this solution has not ...

Make A Dual ECL Latch Function As A Dual R-S Flip-Flop

The MC1030 is a clocked dual D-type latch. Any change in the D input will be reflected at the output while the clock is low. The outputs are latched on the clock's ...
