Abstract: The transfer gate between the master section and the slave section in a flip-flop circuit includes a circuit for reducing the sensitivity to slow clock edges and clock skew. This is accomplished by prolonging the transfer time for data from the master to the salve section of the flip-flop circuit.

Abstract: A gate array circuit includes a row of consecutively arranged n-channel transistors and an adjacent row of p-channel transistors. Both rows are composed of at least three subrows with two subrows of narrow transistors and one subrow of wide transistors, of which the channel width is at least three times the width of the narrow transistors. The gate electrodes are common to the three subrows. Preferably, the wide subrow is arranged centrally between the narrow subrows. This construction affords the advantage of a very high density and a very high flexibility in designing the functions to be realized.

Abstract: A master slice semiconductor integrated circuit comprising ROM memory cells which consist of NMOS-transistors as well as PMOS-transistors. In order to increase the integration density on the master slice, the NMOS-transistors and the PMOS-transistors (memory cells) in one and the same row are controlled via one and the same word line. The circuit includes row selection means, for example, an exclusive-OR circuit for each row, for selecting either a single row of NMOS cells or a single row of PMOS cells.
