Abstract

Methods and apparatus for controlling critical races in sequential circuits so that the there are no conflicts when two or more different data signals exists on shared circuit paths. This enables the design and implementation of sequential circuits having fewer gates than conventional circuit designs of equivalent function that translates into smaller area and power consumption. The control of the critical race is accomplished by adjusting the relative delay of the individual sections of one or more loops.
