Circuit synthesis Goal: –Derive a hazard-free circuit under a given delay model and mode of operation

Speed independence Delay model –Unbounded gate / environment delays –Certain wire delays shorter than certain paths in the circuit Conditions for implementability: –Consistency –Complete State Coding –Persistency

Complex-gate implementation

Implementability conditions Consistency –Rising and falling transitions of each signal alternate in any trace Complete state coding (CSC) –Next-state functions correctly defined Persistency –No event can be disabled by another event (unless they are both inputs)

Implementability conditions Consistency + CSC + persistency There exists a speed-independent circuit that implements the behavior of the STG (under the assumption that ay Boolean function can be implemented with one complex gate)

Persistency a- c+ b+b+ b+b+ a c b a c b is this a pulse ? Speed independence  glitch-free output behavior under any delay
