In this paper we show that, when dealing with transmission-gate based Master-Slave FFs, a
reconsideration of the usual approach for high-speed design is worthwhile to improve
energy-efficiency. By splitting such FFs in two separately optimized sections and then
reconciling the results, the emerging design always outperforms that resulting from the
employment of a classical procedure assuming FFs as a whole continuous path.
