Abstract

Flip-flop circuitry having an input configured to receive an input signal and an output configured to deliver an output signal corresponding to the input signal; a clock terminal configured to provide timing signals for reception of the input signal at the input and transmission of the output signal at the output; two on-path inverters connected serially between the input and output, and configured not to respond to the timing signals; and two feedback inverters respectively connected in parallel with the two on-path inverters, the first and second feedback inverters being configured to respond to the timing signals.
