Abstract
A high-speed latch includes a latch unit and a first current source. The latch unit has a first input terminal for receiving a first input signal and a first output terminal for outputting a first output signal. The first current source is coupled to the first output terminal, and is enabled for providing the first output terminal with a first driving current to reduce a voltage difference between the first output signal and the first input signal when the first output signal and the first input signal correspond to different logic states.
