A scannable pulse dynamic logic gate may include an evaluation network that evaluates dynamic inputs in response to assertion of an evaluate pulse. The evaluate pulse may be generated from a clock signal such that it is shorter in duration than the clock signal. During a normal mode of operation, when the evaluate pulse is asserted, the evaluation network may discharge a dynamic node depending on the state of the dynamic inputs. The dynamic node may then drive output device(s). When the evaluate pulse is deasserted, the dynamic node may be precharged. The gate may also include scan input devices, which, during a scan mode of operation, may load scan input data onto the output node in response to assertion of a scan master clock. A storage element of the gate may receive and capture a value of the output node in response to assertion of a slave scan clock.
