asynchronous circuits

Asynchronous circuits are electronic systems that operate without a global clock or synchronized timing. Instead of all parts working together at the same time, they change states and process data independently, often reacting only when needed. This approach can lead to faster, more energy-efficient devices, as components only activate when necessary. By avoiding the constraints of a fixed clock, asynchronous circuits can adapt better to variations in signals and operate more flexibly, making them suitable for specific applications where power consumption and speed are critical.
