ABSTRACT:
An inexpensive, re-configurable storage device for programmable and application specific logic is disclosed. A configurable storage device comprising a storage circuit including at least one output and at least one input capable of changing said output in a well defined response sequence; and a configuration circuit including at least one memory element to control a portion of said storage circuit; and a programmable means of altering said storage circuit response sequence. This allows the user greater flexibility in picking the most desired flip-flop from a variety of choices. The user programmed flip-flop option converts to an application specific conductive pattern with no change in storage device performance.
