==Original Abstract Submitted==

A first flip-flop features a first latch having a first circuit configuration with a first transistor having a gate directly linked to an input data node of the first latch, and a second latch having a second circuit configuration with a second transistor having a gate connected to the first transistor. The output data node of the second latch is connected to the second transistor. A second flip-flop having a first latch with the second circuit configuration and a second latch with the first circuit configuration is triggered on the opposite clock edge than the first flip-flop.
