    摘要: A multiplexer circuit includes first and second fins each extending in an X-axis direction. First, second, third and fourth gates extend in a Y-axis direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction and contact the first and second fins. The first, second, third and fourth gates are configured to receive first, second, third and fourth data signals, respectively. Fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth gates extend in the Y-axis direction and contact the first and second fins, the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth gates, and are configured to receive the first, second, third and fourth select signals, respectively. An input logic circuit is configured to provide an output at an intermediate node. A ninth gate extends in the Y-axis direction and contacts the first and second fins. An output logic circuit is configured to provide a selected one of the first, second, third and fourth data signals at an output terminal.

    摘要: A method (of expanding a set of standard cells which comprise a library, the library being stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium) includes: selecting one ad hoc group amongst ad hoc groups of elementary standard cells which are recurrent resulting in a selected group such that the elementary standard cells in the selected group having connections so as to represent a corresponding logic circuit, each elementary standard cell representing a logic gate, and the selected group corresponding providing a selected logical function which is representable correspondingly as a selected Boolean expression; generating, in correspondence to the selected group, one or more macro standard cells; and adding the one or more macro standard cells to, and thereby expanding, the set of standard cells; and wherein at least one aspect of the method is executed by a processor of a computer.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device which includes a multiplexer, a master latch, and a slave latch. The multiplexer outputs an inverse of an input data signal or an inverse scan input signal according to a scan enable signal. The master latch is coupled to an output terminal of the multiplexer, and is configured to latch the inverse of the input data signal based on an input clock signal in response to the scan enable signal being in a low-logic state. The slave latch is coupled to the output terminal of the multiplexer through a first clocked CMOS inverter, and is configured to receive the input data signal and to output a latched slave latch data based on the input clock signal. A leakage-free dummy cell is disposed in a non-critical path of the master latch and the slave latch.

    摘要: A circuit includes a multi-bit flip flop, an integrated clock gating circuit connected to the multi-bit flip flop, and a control circuit connected to the integrated clock gating circuit and the multi-bit flip flop. The control circuit compares output data of the multi-bit flip flop corresponding to input data with the input data. The control circuit generates an enable signal based on comparing the output data of the multi-bit flip flop corresponding to the input data with the input data of the multi-bit flip flop. The control circuit provides the enable signal to the integrated clock gating circuit, wherein the integrated clock gating circuit provides, based on the enable signal, a clock signal to the multi-bit flip flop causing the multi-bit flip flop to toggle.
