| Abstract(in English) | For implementing a Boolean function in Self-Timed design, protocols such as Four-Phase signaling scheme should be used so that external circuits can notice the completion of the computation of the Boolean function block. In this work, we focus on a protocal called extended Four-Phase signaling scheme, which can hide the resetting phase of Four-Phase signaling scheme by using two different data representations, and propose a generic design style for the memoryless implementation based on the protocal. We first define a combinational delay-insensitive code and a delay-insensitve function, and show that they are feasible for the memoryless implementation of Self-Timed boolean function blocks. Then, a Four-Rail code which satisfies the required condition is discussed, and a design style based on it using standard CAD library for constructing QDI (Quasi Delay-Insensitive) circuits is shown. |
