Abstract

A procedure of designing a self-timed device defined by the model of finite automaton is suggested. In accordance with the chosen automaton standard implementation structure from the automaton transition/output graph one derives the Signal Graph Specification that then is processed by the formal synthesis procedure for self-timed implementation. The design procedure is illustrated by two examples: Stack Memory and Counter with Constant Acknowledge Delay.
