Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Synchronous circuits are usually defined as D-Flipflop (D-FF) synchronized circuits, but it is doubtful that D-FF completely represents the concept of synchronous. In other words, the conventional definition of synchronous circuits is not at a conceptual level, thus there must be some better definitions especially from a theoretical point of view. In this paper, we propose a novel definition of synchronous circuits. The definition is not on a structural expression of circuits, but on a functional expression. The contribution of this paper is to provide a better understanding about conventional synchronous circuits and also entire sequential circuits.
