Abstract
An electronic circuit is disclosed. A first flip-flop is coupled to receive a clock signal from clock gating circuit. The first flip-flop includes an input circuit having a data input, a master-slave latch, and an output circuit. Responsive to an edge of the clock signal, the master-slave latch may latch a logic value of a signal received on the data input. The output circuit is coupled to the master-slave latch, and provides a logic output signal corresponding to the logic value latched by the master-slave latch. The clock gating circuit may provide one or more inversions of the clock signal which it receives. The flip-flop provides no inversions of the clock signal.
