Abstract
A D-type flip-flop includes tristate inverter circuitry passing a processing signal through to storage circuitryfrom where the processing signal passes via a transmission gate to slave storage circuitry. A transition detector is coupled to the input node of the storage circuitry and serves to generate an error signal if a transition is detected upon that input node during an error detecting period. Other forms of this technique may provide clock gating circuitry.
