Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to clock gating. An example integrated circuit includes an oscillator that outputs a clock signal to a clock gating system that generates and provides a gated clock signal to a data storage circuit. The clock gating system includes a first digital logic circuit having an input coupled to the oscillator to receive the clock signal, an active-low latch that includes an input coupled to an output of the first digital logic circuit and an input coupled to receive an enable signal, a second digital logic circuit that includes an input coupled to the oscillator and an input coupled to the output of the active-low latch, and an active-high latch that includes an input coupled to the output of the second digital logic circuit, an input coupled to receive the enable signal, and an output configured to provide a gated clock signal to the data storage circuit.

Abstract: In an example, a scan flip-flop includes a first transistor and a second transistor coupled to a data input. The scan flip-flop includes a third transistor coupled to a clock input and a fourth transistor coupled to an inverse clock input. The scan flip-flop includes a fifth transistor coupled to a scan enable input and the first transistor, and includes a sixth transistor coupled to an inverse scan enable input and the second transistor. The scan flip-flop includes an input multiplexer that includes a seventh transistor and eighth transistor coupled to the scan data input, a ninth transistor coupled to the scan enable input, and a tenth transistor coupled to the inverse scan enable input. The input multiplexer includes a first diode-connected transistor coupled between a first voltage rail and the seventh transistor, and includes a second diode-connected transistor coupled between a second voltage rail and the eighth transistor.
