Abstract

A circuit includes cross coupled invertors including a first invertor and a second inventor. The first invertor and the second invertor are cross coupled at a first data node and a second data node. An input unit is coupled between the cross-coupled invertors and a power node. The input unit controls the cross-coupled invertors in response to a first input signal received at a first input terminal of the input unit and a second input signal received at a second input terminal of the input unit. A first transistor is connected between the power node and a supply node. The first transistor connects the power node to the supply node in response to an enable signal changing to a first value. A second transistor is connected between the power node and ground. The second transistor connects the power node to the ground in response to the enable signal changing to a second value.
