Abstract
The power consumption of a flip-flop circuit is reduced and an output magnitude is increased to prevent a malfunction from occurring often. In order to reduce the power consumption, an emitter-coupled logic with series gating is used for the master latch of the flip-flop circuit. A series gating is not used but an ECL having transistors connected in parallel is used for the gates of a slave latch so as to increase the output magnitude.
