Abstract :
An implementation of self-timed circuits whose hardware and control signals are significantly reduced is proposed. A globally asynchronous locally synchronous design using the proposed self-timed circuits is also demonstrated. A design example shows that in this implementation less power is consumed with only a small circuit overhead
