Abstract:
A multi-bit flip-flop includes a first flip-flop, a second flip-flop, a first inverter, and a second inverter. The first flip-flop has a first driving capability. The second flip-flop has a second driving capability different from the first driving capability. The first inverter is configured to receive a first clock signal on a first clock pin, and is configured to generate a second clock signal inverted from the first clock signal. The second inverter is coupled to the first inverter, is configured to receive the second clock signal, and is configured to generate a third clock signal inverted from the second clock signal. The first flip-flop and the second flip-flop are configured to share at least the first clock pin.
