Abstract

A low-power retention flip-flop is provided. The low-power retention flip-flop may include: a master latch configured to output an input signal based on first control signals; a slave latch configured to output the signal from the master latch based on second control signals; and a control logic configured to generate the first control signals based on a clock signal, and provide the generated first control signals to the master latch, and generate the second control signals based on the clock signal and a power down mode signal, and provide the generated second control signals to the slave latch.
