Synthesis Tool for Asynchronous Circuits Based on PCFB and PCHB

This paper introduces a synthesis tool for template-based synthesis of asynchronous circuits. The tool, named Template Synthesizer (TSYN) and it is a part of a complete asynchronous design flow named Persia. This tool transforms a behavioral description of a circuit to a sized transistor net-list. The input behavioral description must fit into some previously known templates. These templates are general enough to allow implementation of almost all circuit blocks. Finally, an asynchronous Reed- Solomon Decoder is synthesized using this tool.
