ABSTRACT:
A logic circuit is disclosed that includes a latch for enhancing the circuit logic capacity. The circuit includes a logic block comprising a plurality of logic inputs and at least one logic output, the logic output generating a logic function of the plurality of logic inputs; a first latch input to provide a data state to store in the latch is coupled to said at least one output of logic block; a global latch input to change the stored data state of the latch couple by a programmable method to a local input; and a latch output, wherein when the local input is coupled to the global latch input, the latch output generates logic function of the logic output and the local input.
