Abstract
A clock-less asynchronous processing circuit or system having a plurality of pipelined processing stages utilizes self-clocked generators to tune the delay needed in each of the processing stages to complete the processing cycle. Because different processing stages may require different amounts of time to complete processing or may require different delays depending on the processing required in a particular stage, the self-clocked generators may be tuned to each stage's necessary delay(s) or may be programmably configured.
