Systems and methods are directed to a single-phase non-volatile flip-flop (NVFF), which includes a master stage formed from a dual giant spin Hall effect (GSHE)-magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structure, the dual GSHE-MTJ structure comprising a first GSHE-MTJ and a second GSHE-MTJ coupled between a first combined terminal and a second combined terminal, and a slave stage formed from a first inverter coupled to a second inverter. During a single clock cycle of a clock, a first data value is read out from the slave stage when a clock is in a high state and a second data value is written into the master stage, when the clock is in a low state. The first and second inverters are cross coupled in a latch configuration to hold the first data value as an output, when the clock is in the low state.
