1. A digital circuit or component that generates its own timing signals internally without requiring an external clock, allowing it to operate asynchronously and adapt to varying conditions
The self-timed module improves power efficiency by eliminating unnecessary clock cycles.
O módulo auto-temporizado melhora a eficiência energética eliminando ciclos de relógio desnecessários.
2. In integrated circuit design, a circuit block that uses handshaking signals to coordinate operations between different parts of the system
Engineers designed a self-timed module to reduce electromagnetic interference in the processor.
Os engenheiros projetaram um módulo auto-temporizado para reduzir interferência eletromagnética no processador.
