Flip-Flop Circuit with Glitch Protection
Abstract:
A flip-flop with glitch protection is disclosed. The flip-flop includes a differential amplifier circuit that generates amplifier output signals based on an input data and clock signals and precharges a true data node when a clock signal is inactive. A latch circuit is coupled to the differential amplifier and includes a latch node. Responsive to a current value of the input data signal having a first logic state, the latch node is set at a logic value equivalent to the precharged value during an active phase of the clock signal. Responsive to the current value of the input data signal having a second logic state complementary to the first, during the active phase of the clock signal, the latch circuit causes the latch node to be set to a logic value complementary to the precharged value, using the clock signal and the current value of the input data signal.
