Fast/Slow State Machine Latch

US Patent:
7459936, Dec 2, 2008
Filed:
Oct 10, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/869988
Inventors:
Richard R. Bell - Hinesburg VT, US
Wilson D. Skipwith - Essex Junction VT, US
Sebastian T. Ventrone - Burlington VT, US
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
G06F 7/38, H03K 19/173
US Classification:
326 46, 326 52, 327144
Abstract:
A fast/slow state machine latch is provided that generates fast and slow select signals for a single toggle, low power multiplexer circuit. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the fast/slow state machine latch includes a first latch with a delayed output, a second latch with an undelayed output, an inverter for coupling the delayed output of the first latch to an input of the second latch, and an exclusive-OR (XOR) gate coupled to the delayed output of the first latch and a data input, an output of the XOR gate coupled to an input of the first latch. A method for incorporating low power multiplexer circuits into a circuit design with minimal input from a circuit designer is also provided.
