This paper presents quaternary D flip-flop with advanced performance. Quaternary D flip-flop is composed of the components such as thermometer code output circuit, EX-OR gate, bias inverter, transmission gate and binary D flip-flop circuit. The designed circuit is simulated by HSPICE in $0.35{\mu}m$ one-poly six-metal CMOS process parameters with a single +3.3V supply voltage. In the simulations, sampling frequencies is measured around 100MHz. The PDP parameters and FOM we estimated to be 59.3fJ, 33.7 respectively.

In this paper, New type of Static Edge Triggered D Flip-Flop Circuits which are effective for the sequencial selecting and addressing of Matrix type Electrodes being applied to Flat Display Devices is proposed by the Design Technique using the Transmission Characteristics of Feedback Transistors and Charge Back Up Function. These Circuits composed of 2-4 less transistors in number than Conventional Static D Flip Flop's have some advantages that the Maximum Transition Time of Clock Signals allowed is increased by 100-450 times more than that of the Conventional circuit at 100KHz Clock Frequence and Circuit Safety is much increased by making the wider ranges, 1-4V, of Clock Levelas a Non-operating periods than 3-3.2V ranges in case of the Conventional Circuit at 10MHz clock frequence. By these advantages, These circuits can be very effectively used in case that clock signal has long transition time, especially on the low frequency operation.

We have simulated and laid out a Single Flux Quantum(SFQ) AND gate for Arithmetic Logic Unit by using XIC, WRspice and Lmeter. SFQ AND gate circuit is a combination of two D Flip-Flop. D Flip-Flop and dc SQUID are the similar shape form the fact that it has the loop inductor and two Josephson junction We obtained perating margins and accomplished layout of the AND gate. We got the margin of $\pm$38%. over. After layout, we drew mask for fabrication of SFQ AND sate. This mask was included AND gate, dcsfq, sfqdc, rs flip-flop and jtl.

We has designed, fabricated, and measured a Single flux quantum (SFQ) toggle flip-flop (TFF). The TFF is widely used in superconductive digital electronics circuits. Many digital devices, such as frequency counter, counting ADC and program counter be used TFF Specially, a program counter may be constructed based on TFF We have designed the newly TFF and obtained high bias margins on test. In this work, we used two circuit simulation tools, WRspice and Julia, as circuit optimization tools. We used XIC for a layout tool. Newly designed TFF had minimum bias margins of +/- $37\%$ and maximum bias margins of +/-$37\%$(enhanced from +/- $37\%$). The designed circuits were fabricated by using Nb technology The test results showed that the re-optimized TFF operated correctly on 100kHz and had a very wide bias margins of +/- $53\%$.

Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata is a next-generation nanocircular design technology that is drawing attention from many research organizations not only because it is possible to design efficient circuits by overcoming the physical size limitations of existing CMOS circuits, but also because of its energy-efficient features. In this paper, one of the existing digital circuits, T flip-flop circuit, is proposed using QCA. The previously proposed T flip-flops are designed based on the majority gate, so the circuits are complex and have long delays. Therefore, the design of the XOR gate-based T flip-flop using cell interaction reduces circuit complexity and minimizes latency. The proposed circuit is simulated using QCADesigner, and the performance is compared and analyzed with the existing proposed circuits.

In this paper, two new flip-flop circuits with PCRAM latches that are FF-1 and FF-2, respectively, are proposed not to waste leakage during sleep time. Unlike the FF-1 circuit that has a normal PCRAM latch, the FF-2 circuit has a selective write latch that can reduce the switching activity in writing operation to save switching power at sleep-in moment. Moreover, a sequential sleep-in control is proposed to reduce the rush current peak that is observed at the sleep-in moment. From the simulation of storing '000000' to the PCRAM latch, we could verify that the proposed FF-1 and FF-2 consume smaller power than the conventional 45-nm FF if the sleep time is longer than $465{\mu}s$ and $95{\mu}s$, respectively, at $125^{\circ}C$. For the rush current peak, the sequential sleep-in control could reduce the current peak as much as 77%.

An RSFQ (Rapid Single Flux Quantum) counter can be used as a frequency divider that was an essential part of a programmable voltage standard chip. The voltage standard chip is composed of two circuit parts, a counter and an antenna Analog signal of tens to hundreds ㎓ may be applied to a finline antenna part. This analog signal can be converted to the stream of SFQ voltage pulses by a DC/SFQ circuit. The number of voltage pulses can be reduced by 2n times when they pass through a counter that is composed of n T Flip-Flops (Toggle Flip-Flop). Such a counter can be used not only as a frequency divider, but also to build a programmable voltage standard chip. So, its application range can be telecommunication, high speed RAM, microprocessor, etc. In this work, we have used Xic, WRspice, and L-meter to design an RSFQ counter. After circuit optimization, we could obtain the bias current margins of the T Flip-Flop circuit to be above 31％ Our RSFQ counter circuit designs were based on the 1 ㎄/$\textrm{cm}^2$ niobium trilayer technology.

Because of the high cost for the active power filter, passive filters have been widly used to eliminate harmonic currents of nonlinear load and can also improve the power factor. They are not often optimal filters because the passive filters are designed under the fixed load conditions. In this paper we proposed the method which only the necessary harmonic filters are operated by detecting the various harmonic current components. We presents the new control method of passive filter selection type with the relay control circuit which is consist of analog GIC, comparater, flip-flop and etc. By the experimental results using the proposed system for the rectifier load, we concluded that the researched method is cost effective and the performance is better than the passive filter.
