Design a flip-flop circuit adhering to strict timing requirements, ensuring both setup and hold times are satisfied. Discuss potential issues that could arise in high-speed operations.
💡 Hint: Consider the trade-offs and design choices that affect circuit performance.
Given a scenario where a D-Flip-Flop must work with a clock period of 5 ns, with a t_CQ of 1 ns, a t_setup of 0.5 ns, and a t_hold of 0.5 ns, analyze the available time for combinational logic between two flip-flops.
💡 Hint: Keep in mind all the timing constraints when calculating.
