Implementation of Sense Amplifier-based D Flip-Flop using 0.25 μm and 0.18 μm Technology
Abstract
The traditional flip-flops and latches suffer from the large delays and the race conditions. This paper describes a new approach to the D flip-flop design using the sense amplifier. The previous efforts in the same direction made at the 0.25 μm technology exhibit improvements in clock-to-output delay and power dissipation with respect to recently proposed high-speed flip-flops. The paper discusses the flip-flop at 0.18 μm technology. The output latch of the proposed circuit can be considered as a hybrid solution between the standard NAND-based SR latch and the N-C2MOS approach. The present technology exhibits improvements in clock-to-output delay and power dissipation with respect to recently proposed high-speed flip-flops.
