Abstract

Compared with the pure one-clock synchronous designs,the designers more often deal with the multi-clock asychronous designs. Therefore,asynchronous circuit design is very important in the field of digital circuit design. This paper briefly describes the problematic metastability in the asynchronous designs and presents a regular solution——synchronizer.
