Abstract :
This paper presents two area and power-delay efficient state retention pulsed flops with scan and reset capabilities for sub-90 nm production low-power designs. The proposed flops also mitigate area overhead and integration complexity in SoC designs by implementing a single retention control signal and shared function/scan mode clock.
