Abstract:
In certain aspects, an apparatus includes a gating circuit having an enable input, a signal input, and an output, wherein the enable input is configured to receive an enable signal. The apparatus also includes a toggle circuit having an output, wherein the toggle circuit is configured to toggle a logic state at the output of the toggle circuit based on the enable signal. The apparatus further includes a multiplexer having a first input, a second input, and an output, wherein the first input of the multiplexer is coupled to the output of the gating circuit, the second input of the multiplexer is coupled to the output of the toggle circuit. The multiplexer is configured to select one of the first input and the second input based on the enable signal, and couple the selected one of the first input and the second input to the output of the multiplexer.
