Counter Selection

Asynchronous Advantages

Simple Design Utilizes Clock Gating Fast for small counters

Disadvantages Ripple Effect Delay Grows with

Counter Size

Synchronous Advantages

No Ripple Effect. Delay of all outputs are equal.

Disadvantages More Logic Required Flip Flops are clocked

even when no transition is required

Optimizations and Conclusions

Potential Optimization Low threshold gates could be used along the critical

path of and gates to make the circuit faster at lower voltages.

Conclusions Tradeoff between power and delay for a given circuit. I would like to have gotten the predictive models to

work.
