It is widely recognized that the uncontrollable statistical variability in device characteristics represent major challenges to scaling and integration for present and next generation nano-CMOS transistors and circuits. This will in turn demands revolutionary changes in the way in which future integrated circuits and systems are designed. Strong links must be established between circuit design, system...
This paper describes a method of synthesising asynchronous circuits based on the Handshake Circuit paradigm but employing a data-driven, rather than the control-driven, style. This approach attempts to combine the performance advantages of data-driven asynchronous design styles with the handshake circuit style of construction. The integration into the existing Balsa design flow of a compiler for descriptions...
The seventh international symposium on asynchronous circuits and systems, in Salt Lake City, March 2001, featured a presentation with the challenging title 'Where are the Async Millionaires?' The morale of this invited talk by Kevin Normoyle, a Distinguished Engineer at Sun Microsystems, was that if the asynchronous community claims that their technology is so promising, why doesn't the technology...
We discuss the problem of soft errors in asynchronous burst mode machines (ABMMs) and we propose two solutions. The first solution is an error tolerance approach, which leverages the inherent functionality of Muller C-elements, along with a variant of duplication, to suppress all transient errors. The proposed method is more robust and less expensive than the typical Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR)...
