Multiplexer for sdfq having differently-sized scan and data transistors, semiconductor device including same and methods of manufacturing same

Abstract

A semiconductor device has a cell region including active regions that extend in a first direction and in which are formed components of transistors. The transistors of the cell region are arranged to function as a scan insertion D flip flop (SDFQ). The SDFQ includes a multiplexer serially connected at an internal node to a D flip-flop (FF). The transistors of the multiplexer include data transistors for selecting a data input signal, the data transistors having a first channel configuration with a first channel size, and scan transistors of the multiplexer for selecting a scan input signal, the scan transistors having a second channel configuration with a second channel size. The second channel size is smaller than the first channel size.
