Abstract

A data latch circuit which drives an output node to a certain value without waiting for a transition at the internal latching device. The advantage is low power consumption and high performance characteristics. The difference between a conventional differential latch and a boosted differential latch is the existence of a boosting transistor device, which allows the low power advantages of the differential latch, while improving the performance.
