Pulsed flip-flop capable of being implemented across multiple voltage domains

Last updated:

Abstract:

Examples described herein generally relate to devices that include a pulsed flip-flop capable of being implemented across multiple voltage domains. In an example, a device includes a pulsed flip-flop. The pulsed flip-flop includes a master circuit and a slave circuit sequentially connected to the master circuit. The master circuit includes a pre-charge input circuit and a first latch. A first node is connected between the pre-charge input circuit and the first latch. The slave circuit includes a resolving circuit and a second latch. The first node is connected to an input node of the resolving circuit. A second node is connected between the resolving circuit and the second latch. The resolving circuit is configured to selectively (i) pull up or pull down a voltage of the second node and (ii) be disabled.
