Abstract :
The potential advantage of low power consumption is one of the main reasons why asynchronous logic attracts attention from both industrial and academic circles. A number of low-power asynchronous designs have been proposed since the 1990s. In this paper, an attempt is made to compare the power-efficiency of asynchronous and synchronous designs, and to evaluate low-power asynchronous techniques
