This article describes emerging trends in synchronizing digital ICs and shows how process scaling, rapid increases in clock frequencies, and demand for lower power dissipation will affect the choice ...

The synchronous vs. asynchronous design debate erupts every now and then, usually when a vocal minority swears by asynchronous design, often claiming that asynchronous design delivers higher ...

In an era when power has become a fundamental design constraint, questions persist about whether asynchronous logic has a role to play. It is a design style said to have significant benefits and yet ...

The LT8645S is a constant frequency, current mode synchronous step-down switching regulator that can provide up to 8A continuous output while safely operating with a 65V input. Its internal ...

Synchronous detection is a measurement method where a stimulus is modulated with some frequency and the response is demodulated to bring the signal back down to base band. Performed when a dc stimulus ...

Like a cross between traditional belting and chain, timing belts include a main body and engaging surfaces — a.k.a. teeth. They're used to synchronize motion on everything from copiers to conveyors.

Computer architecture researchers evaluate key areas such as pipelining, organization, instruction issue, branching, and exception handling when considering asynchronous and synchronous design and ...
