Sequencing q Combinational logic – output depends on current inputs q Sequential logic – output depends on current and previous inputs – Requires separating previous, current, future – Called state or tokens – Ex: FSM, pipeline Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 3
Sequencing Cont. q If tokens moved through pipeline at constant speed, no sequencing elements would be necessary q Ex: fiber-optic cable – Light pulses (tokens) are sent down cable – Next pulse sent before first reaches end of cable – No need for hardware to separate pulses – But dispersion sets min time between pulses q This is called wave pipelining in circuits q In most circuits, dispersion is high – Delay fast tokens so they don’t catch slow ones. Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 4
Sequencing Overhead q Use flip-flops to delay fast tokens so they move through exactly one stage each cycle. q Inevitably adds some delay to the slow tokens q Makes circuit slower than just the logic delay – Called sequencing overhead q Some people call this clocking overhead – But it applies to asynchronous circuits too – Inevitable side effect of maintaining sequence Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 5
Sequencing Elements q Latch: Level sensitive – a. k. a. transparent latch, D latch q Flip-flop: edge triggered – A. k. a. master-slave flip-flop, D register q Timing Diagrams – Transparent – Opaque – Edge-trigger Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 6

Time Borrowing q In a flop-based system: – Data launches on one rising edge – Must setup before next rising edge – If it arrives late, system fails – If it arrives early, time is wasted – Flops have hard edges q In a latch-based system – Data can pass through latch while transparent – Long cycle of logic can borrow time into next – As long as each loop completes in one cycle Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 40
Time Borrowing Example Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 41
How Much Borrowing? 2 -Phase Latches Pulsed Latches Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 42
Clock Skew q We have assumed zero clock skew q Clocks really have uncertainty in arrival time – Decreases maximum propagation delay – Increases minimum contamination delay – Decreases time borrowing Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 43

Skew: Latches 2 -Phase Latches Pulsed Latches Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 45
Two-Phase Clocking q If setup times are violated, reduce clock speed q If hold times are violated, chip fails at any speed q Working chips are most important – Analyzing clock skew difficult q An easy way to guarantee hold times is to use 2 phase latches with big nonoverlap times q Call these clocks f 1, f 2 (ph 1, ph 2) Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 46
Safe Flip-Flop q In class, use flip-flop with nonoverlapping clocks – Very slow – nonoverlap adds to setup time – But no hold times q In industry, use a better timing analyzer – Add buffers to slow signals if hold time is at risk Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 47
Summary q Flip-Flops: – Very easy to use, supported by all tools q 2 -Phase Transparent Latches: – Lots of skew tolerance and time borrowing q Pulsed Latches: – Fast, some skew tol & borrow, hold time risk Sequential Logic CMOS VLSI Design 48
