  3. Asynchronous sequential circuits: • Do not use clock pulses. • The change of internal state occurs when there is a change in the input variable. • Their memory elements are either unclocked flip-flops or time-delay elements. • They often resemble combinational circuits with feedback. • Their synthesis is much more difficult than the synthesis of clocked synchronous sequential circuits. • They are used when speed of operation is important.

  4. Definitions • The present state variables (y1 to yk) are called secondary variables. The next state variables (Y1 to Yk) are called excitation variables. • Assumption: The input signals change one at a time and only when the circuit is in a stable condition.

  5. Example • The analysis of the circuit starts by considering the excitation variables (Y1and Y2) as outputs and the secondary variables (y1 and y2) as inputs.

  10. Race Non Critical • A race condition exists in an asynchronous circuit when two or more binary state variables change value in response to a change in an input variable.
