Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first clocked forwarding-switch and a second clocked forwarding-switch each implemented with strong transistors in at least one strong active-region structure. The integrated circuit also includes a first clocked inverter and a second clocked inverter each implemented with weak transistors in at least one weak active-region structure. The integrated circuit further includes a first inverter cross coupled with the first clocked inverter and a second inverter cross coupled with the second clocked inverter. An output of the first clocked forwarding-switch is conductively connected with an output of the first clocked inverter, and an output of the second clocked forwarding-switch is conductively connected with an output of the second clocked inverter.
