    Abstract: The apparatus may include a first latch configured to store a first state or a second state. The first latch may have a first latch input, one of a set input or a reset input, a first pulse clock input, and a first latch output. The first latch input may be coupled to a fixed logic value. The one of the set input or the reset input may be coupled to a clock signal or an inverted clock signal, respectively. The apparatus may include an AND gate having a first AND gate input, a second AND gate input, and a first AND gate output. The clock signal may be coupled to the first AND gate input. The first latch output may be coupled to the second AND gate input. The AND gate output may be configured to output a pulsed clock. The pulsed clock may be coupled to the first pulse clock input.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for signal delay in a scan path comprises, in a scan mode, delaying a scan signal in the scan path by propagating the scan signal through a plurality of delay devices coupled in series, wherein a first one of the delay devices is powered by a first voltage, a second one of the delay devices is powered by a second voltage, and the second voltage is greater than the first voltage. The method also comprises, in a functional mode, disabling the delay devices.

    Abstract: Techniques for fixing hold violations using metal-programmable cells are described herein. In one embodiment, a system comprises a first flip-flop, a second flip-flop, and a data path between the first and second flip-flops. The system further comprises a metal-programmable cell connected to the data path, wherein the metal-programmable cell is programmed to implement at least one capacitor to add a capacitive load to the data path. The capacitive load adds delay to the data path that prevents a hold violation at one of the first and second flip-flops.
