Abstract(in English) As the VLSI fabrication technology advances, delay variations due to random process variations, crosstalk, and aging effect, which exhibit random characteristics even in the neighboring components, have been one of main issues. QDI-model-based dual-rail asynchronous circuits are promising implementation against these random variations. However, the dual-rail circuits which are composed by the normal single-rail standard-cell libraries may be twice larger than the corresponding single-rail circuits. In this paper, we propose DDL (Differential Domino Logic) cell libraries and their logic synthesis libraries in order to design high-performance and small-area asynchronous circuits. The cell libraries contain 12 DDL cells, which can implement any function by one of them. We also design three synthesis libraries in the Liberty format and compare them. We will show some evaluation results using the Nangate 45nm process technologies.
