A coolly tantalizing alternative to the latest approaches to blazing IC performance is expected to cut this week's sweltering heat at the Hot Chips conference. The design technique is said to ...

Corrective control of asynchronous sequential machines (ASMs) represents a critical advancement in the design and operation of digital systems where state transitions occur without synchronous timing.

If only we’d been taught the tricks associated with the asynchronous domain, we could have run wild and free; instead, we were condemned to serve the rules of the synchronous realm. In my previous ...
