Abstract :
This article is an asynchronous approach to bit-serial processing. A new asynchronous cell (DCVSL like) was designed containing simplified “complete” signal generation as part of a dynamic handshake circuitry. The problem of data feedback has been addressed and its solution in a modified handshake protocol and local memory inclusion is given. Basic arithmetic components are demonstrated and a larger system is used as an example of this new cost effective technique
