Abstract:
In some embodiments, a flip-flop is disposed as an integrated circuit layout on a flip-flop region of a semiconductor substrate. The flip-flop includes a first clock inverter circuit that resides within the flip-flop region, and a second clock inverter circuit residing within the flip-flop region. The first clock inverter circuit and the second clock inverter circuit are disposed on a first line. Master switch circuitry is made up of a first plurality of devices which are circumscribed by a master switch perimeter that resides within the flip-flop region of the integrated circuit layout. The master switch circuitry and the first clock inverter circuit are disposed on a second line perpendicular to the first line. Slave switch circuitry is operably coupled to an output of the master switch circuitry. The slave switch circuitry is made up of a third plurality of devices that are circumscribed by a slave switch perimeter. The slave switch circuitry and the second clock inverter circuit are disposed on a third line that is in parallel with and spaced apart from the second line.

Claim (Index 19):
The flip-flop of  claim 18 , further comprising:\n scan mux input switch circuitry operably coupled to an input of the master switch circuitry, the master switch circuitry and the scan mux input circuitry each being disposed on the second line.
