Abstract
Asynchronous circuits have characteristics that differ significantly from those of synchronous circuits in terms of their power and robustness to variations. In this article, we show how it is possible to exploit these characteristics to design robust ultralow-power circuits within the scope of the Internet of Everything (IoE) and with globally asynchronous and locally synchronous (GALS) architectures. More specifically, our aim is to describe the fundamentals of asynchronous circuit design; to detail specific methodologies with practical examples of low-power, asynchronous circuits; and to offer clear guidelines that differentiate the usefulness of an asynchronous circuit compared to a synchronous one according to different application needs.
