Abstract
In this paper we study the operation and working of a Dual Dynamic node hybrid flip-flop (DDFF-ELM) with an embedded logic module. It is one of the most efficient D-Flip-flops in terms of power and delay as compared to other dynamic flip flops. A double exponential current pulse is passed to the sensitive nodes of the circuit to model a radiation particle strike in the circuit. The faulty output is then corrected using a radiation hardening by design technique. All the circuits are implemented using Cadence 90 nm technology and a comparison is made between the power and delay of already implemented D- flip-flops.
