For a synchronous D flip-flop, the SETUP TIME requirement specifies which constraint?

AD toggles on every active clock edge always
BD may change anytime after the clock edge
CD = 1 only at the clock edge always
DD stable at least t_setup before clock edge
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. D stable at least t_setup before clock edge
Setup: D stable t_setup before active clock edge. Hold: D stable t_hold after the edge. Violating either causes metastability + wrong sampled value.
