====== Design of Asynchronous Circuits ======

//1 June 2016 at [[http://www.dialog-semiconductor.com/|Dialog Semiconductor]], Swindon, UK//

This tutorial will introduce the theory and fundamental principles of asynchronous circuit design. Practical session will teach the engineer how to use the Workcraft toolset to synthesise and verify basic asynchronous circuits, such as buck controller and VME bus controller.
