Abstract: A latch or flip flop circuit with an increased operating frequency is disclosed. In particular, the operating frequency of the latch is increased by reducing the set up time of the latch circuit. A regenerative circuit is provided between the transmission gate of the latch circuit and the data output. The regenerative circuit comprises a pull up circuit and a pull down circuit. The circuit arrangement of the present invention may be applied to flip flop or latch circuits in combination with other flip flop or latch circuits such as a Master-Slave configuration.
