Abstract: | A new technique for the design of self-timed systems using a modified PCVSL (Precharged Cascode Voltage Switch Logic) circuit and a new handshaking protocol is presented. This technique allows different data to be stored and computed in consecutive PCVSL pipeline stages simultaneously, resulting in a significant saving in silicon area and speed-up in fall-through delay.<> |
