Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to synchronizing signals across multiple independent clock domains. In an example, a synchronizer flip-flop circuit is provided. The synchronizer flip-flop circuit includes a first latch sub-circuit coupled to receive an input and a second latch sub-circuit coupled to the first latch sub-circuit. The first latch sub-circuit includes a first group of inverters, a first diode-connected transistor coupled in parallel to each inverter of the first group of inverters and configured to provide a first bias voltage to each inverter of the first group of inverters, and a second diode-connected transistor coupled in parallel to each inverter of the first group of inverters and configured to provide a second bias voltage to each inverter of the first group of inverters.
