<p>A flip-flop circuit (12) is disclosed which enables a single side pull-down operation for inputting test signals (90) during a test mode and alternately a dual side push-pull operation for inputting data signals (20) during the normal use of the circuit. A pair of inverter circuits (19,25) selectively feed complementary data signals to opposite sides of a bistable circuit (30,32) so that the circuit operates in the push-pull manner thereby decreasing the switching time of the flip-flop. A pair of transmission gates (22,28), which are coupled to outputs of the inverter circuits (17,27), electrically isolate any noise appearing of a data input from the bistable circuit. During a test mode of the flip-flop, a test signal is fed into one side of the bistable circuit and facilitates a single side pull-down operation of the flip-flop. Two such flip-flop circuits (12,14) are concatenated in a push-pull cascaded connection to provide a shift register latch (10).</p> |
