Enable latch powers up open · case 02

A clock high in the very first sample passes through before the latch has captured an enable.

Case contract

Input [samples] of [clk, en, te]. The enable latch starts at 0 and is transparent while clk is 0 (q = en or te), holding while clk is 1. The gated clock is clk and q. Return [gated clock per sample, number of gated rising edges counting from an initial low].

Why this case matters

Integrated clock gating cells rely on a low-transparent latch to avoid glitches; simulation models that skip the latch show clock pulses that silicon never produces.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.

Boundary fixture	Actual	Expected	Outcome
starts with clock high	`[[1, 0, 1], 2]`	`[[0, 0, 1], 1]`	Failed
