Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) As PVT variations get larger, synchronous circuits are getting less reliable and timing margins are getting larger. Self-timed circuits based on a completion-detection architecture detect completion of each executions. A variation of delay doesn't cause any error in these circuits. DCVSL using dual-rail logic can implement them, so the way to design a processor automatically is established. A processor is designed in this way. It can follow a target speed with dynamic voltage scaling. The operating speed of a self-timed processor is average of delays, so it is faster than the largest delay. This difference of delays is used as power saving when the processor is operated with synchronous circuits.
