In an attempt to reduce the pipeline overhead, a new family of edge-triggered flip-flops has
been developed. The flip-flops belong to a class of semidynamic and dynamic circuits that …

An asynchronous pipeline style is introduced for high-speed applications, called
MOUSETRAP. The pipeline uses standard transparent latches and static logic in its …

A new asynchronous pipeline design is introduced for high-speed applications. The pipeline
uses simple transparent latches in its datapath, and small latch controllers consisting of only …

A new class of asynchronous pipelines is proposed, called lookahead pipelines (LP), which
use dynamic logic and are capable of delivering multi-gigahertz throughputs. Since they are …

An asynchronous pipeline for high-Speed applications uses Simple transparent latches in its
datapath and Small latch controllers for each pipeline Stage. The Stages communicate with …

This paper introduces a high-throughput asynchronous pipeline style, called high-capacity
(HC) pipelines, targeted to datapaths that use dynamic logic. This approach includes a novel …

Even with aggressive new technology, the complex high-performance processor will require
special design techniques and architectures to take advantage of new interconnect and …

Dynamic gates are preferred in the design of high-performance modules in modern
microprocessors due to the relatively high speed of dynamic gates compared with that of …

Aggressive timed circuits, including synchronous and asynchronous self-resetting circuits,
are particularly challenging to design and verify due to complicated timing constraints that …

Dynamic circuit techniques offer potential advantages over static CMOS. Domino circuits are
the most widespread representative in high performance designs but suffer increasingly …
