There have been a number of small-scale and
large-scale technology demonstrations of asynchronous circuits,
showing that they have benefits in performance and powerefficiency
in a variety of application domains. Most recently, asynchronous
circuits were used in the TrueNorth neuromorphic chip
to achieve unprecedented energy-efficiency for neuromorphic
systems. However, these circuits cannot be easily adopted, because
commercially available design tools do not support asynchronous
logic. As part of the DARPA ERI effort, we are addressing this
challenge by developing a set of open-source design tools for
asynchronous circuits.
