  • Abstract
    The composability dimension of asynchronous circuits is extended to incorporate delay-insensitivity, area utilisation and layout complexity. The disadvantages of conventional delay-insensitive data paths are established, and an alternative solution based on tri-state buffers is presented. The solution maintains the same delay-insensitivity while achieving a significant reduction in circuit area utilisation and layout complexity of the data path
