摘要
A complete microprocessor-based digital signal processor (DSP) was designed and fabricated using self-timed circuits following a four-cycle handshake protocol to provide fully asynchronous operation without the need for any global clock. The general-purpose DSP, designed in 2-pm n-well CMOS, has an active area of 6.6 mm ×4.7 mm and instruction times range from 73 to 337 ns at 5 V, depending on the hardware requirements of each operation. © 1990 IEEE
