Abstract
Apparatuses and methods including dice latches in a semiconductor device are disclosed. Example dice latches have a circuit arrangement that include a reduced number of circuits, such as transistors, and provides a compact layout. Operation of example dice latches and other dice latches may be controlled by separately provided control signals for loading and latching of data, and in some examples, for a reset operation. Example layouts include circuit elements aligned along a direction with at least one other circuit element offset from the other aligned circuit elements.
