    摘要: A circuit includes a logic gate and a latch. The logic gate is configured to receive a clock signal at a first input. The latch is disposed in a feedback loop of the logic gate and is configured to output a feedback signal to a second input of the logic gate in response to a signal output by the logic gate and the clock signal. The circuit is configured to output a pulsed signal based on one of a rising edge or a falling edge of the clock signal.

    摘要: An antenna cell for preventing plasma enhanced gate dielectric failures, is provided. The antenna cell design utilizes a polysilicon lead as a gate for a dummy transistor. The polysilicon lead may be one of a group of parallel, nested polysilicon lead. The dummy transistor includes the gate coupled to a substrate maintained at VSS, either directly through a metal lead or indirectly through a tie-low cell. The gate is disposed over a dielectric disposed over a continuous source/drain region in which the source and drain are tied together. A diode is formed with the semiconductor substrate within which it is formed. The source/drain region is coupled to another metal lead which may be an input pin and is coupled to active transistor gates, preventing plasma enhanced gate dielectric damage to the active transistors.
