    Abstract: A multi-bit flip-flop includes: a single scan input pin to receive a scan input signal, a plurality of data input pins to receive first and second data input signals, a first scan flip-flop to select one of the scan input signal and the first data input signal as a first selection signal in response to a scan enable signal and to latch the first selection signal to provide a first output signal, a second scan flip-flop to select one of an internal signal corresponding to the first output signal and the second data input signal as a second selection signal in response to the scan enable signal and to latch the second selection signal to provide a second output signal, and a plurality of output pins to output the first and second output signals, wherein scan paths of the first and second scan flip-flops are connected to each other.

    Abstract: A multi-bit flip-flop includes a plurality of multi-bit flip-flop blocks that share a clock signal. Each of the multi-bit flip-flop blocks includes a single inverter and a plurality of flip-flops. The single inverter generates an inverted clock signal by inverting the clock signal. Each of the flip-flops includes a master latch part and a slave latch part and operates the master latch part and the slave latch part based on the clock signal and the inverted clock signal. Here, the flip-flops are triggered at rising edges of the clock signal. Thus, the multi-bit flip-flop operating as a master-slave flip-flop may minimize (or, reduce) power consumption occurring in a clock path through which the clock signal is transmitted.

    Abstract: A flip-flop generates a first feedback signal using a signal generated inside the flip-flop. The flip-flop includes a first stage circuit, a second stage circuit and a third stage circuit. The first stage circuit receives a first data signal and a clock signal and generates a first internal signal through a first node. The second stage circuit receives the first internal signal, the clock signal, and the first feedback signal and generates a second internal signal through a second node. The third stage circuit generates a second data signal by latching the second internal signal when the clock signal is at a first level, using the second internal signal and the clock signal. The second stage circuit cuts off at least one first current path between the second node and a power supply, based on the first feedback signal, when the clock signal is at a second level.
