A clocked-scan flip-flop for multi-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) is provided. The clocked-scan flip-flop includes a first switching unit which switches normal data that are input from the outside and outputs the data; a second switching unit which switches scan data that are input from the outside and outputs the data; a latch unit which latches the data input from the first switching unit or the second switching unit; and a clock input unit which controls the switching operations of the first and second switching units according to the result of a predetermined operation on a clock signal and a scan clock signal that are input from the outside. The clocked-scan flip-flop has the characteristics of a complementary pass-transistor (CP) flip-flop, that is, low power consumption and high performance. Also, the clocked-scan flip-flop provides a full-scale scan function for test purposes.
