Original Abstract Submitted
A flip-flop circuit includes first and second storage circuits. The flip-flop circuit is configurable to store first values of a data signal in the first storage circuit in response to rising edges of a clock signal and to store second values of the data signal in the second storage circuit in response to falling edges of the clock signal during a double edge triggered mode. The flip-flop circuit is configurable to store third values of the data signal in the first storage circuit and to output the third values from the first storage circuit in response to the clock signal during a single edge triggered mode.
