Title A cell set for self-timed design using actel FPGAs
Date 1991
Description Asynchronous or self-timed systems that do not rely on a global clock to keep system components synchronized can offer significant advantages over traditional clocked circuits in a variety of applications. However, these systems require that suitable self-timed circuit primitives are available for building the system. This report describes a cell set designed for building self-timed circuits and systems using Actel field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The cells use a two-phase transition signalling protocol for control signals and a bundled protocol for data signals. This library of macro cells is designed to be used with the Workmen tool suite from VIEWlogic and the Action Logic System (ALS) from Actel.
