  • Abstract
    A methodology is proposed, which involves the use of an aperture transformer comprising a new controlled clock circuit. For reducing overall metastability by first transforming unsafe edge arrival times into metastability of the control signals. A large reduction in metastability has been demonstrated by the development of a new bit synchroniser built using the methodology
