Abstract :
A novel timing characterization for dual-edge triggered flip-flops is presented. This characterization takes into account the real overhead taken from the clock cycle by the flip-flops. Our study shows the correctness of these new metrics when compared against data-to-output delay. An example of the proposed delay characterization and comparison with conventional (data-to-output) metrics for dual-edge flip-flop design is given
