Abstract
Three state latch. In accordance with a first embodiment, an electronic circuit includes a single latch having three stable states. The electronic circuit may be configured so that all three outputs reflect a change at any one input in not more than three gate delays. The electronic circuit may further be configured so that when all inputs are set to one, a previous state of the latch is retained and output on the outputs.
