Abstract :
In this paper, we compare three previously published static double edge-triggered (DET) flip-flops with a proposed design for their transistor counts and power consumptions. The proposed DET flip-flop uses only 12 transistors in addition to the clock driver, and hence requires a small area. Several HSPICE simulations with different input sequences show that the proposed DET flip-flop reduces power consumption up to 85%, as compared to conventional DET flip-flops.
