Reconfigurable Clockless Logic Replaces ASICs

Startup Wave Semiconductor is developing a new class of reprogrammable logic devices called Azure, which the company claims can replace costly application-specific standard products (ASSPs) and ASICs while offering the reprogrammable flexibility and low engineering cost of FPGAs. These self-synchronizing logic devices incorporate an architecture using wave threshold logic (WTL) multipliers and other IP blocks that cut power consumption significantly.
