Abstract :
This paper shows that by taking advantage of a fairly uniform delay distribution in semiconductor random-access memories (ROMs and read-write memories in integrated circuit form) it is possible to realise asynchronous sequential circuits (ASCs) economically. It is shown that the ASC so designed will function without fault, in spite of the presence of races and essential hazards in the ASC.
