Abstract

We have developed a computer simulator for the asynchronous sequential circuits (ASCs) constructed by using the random access memories (RAMs). This is a generic simulator with respect to the manufacturing technology of the RAM because all the time delays are variables and can be changed by the user. In addition, there is no restriction on the RAM size. The simulated RAM can be programmed and then the simulator simulates the ASC with its direct feedback connections. The durations of the transition states are generated in a random fashion. The user can change the input state interactively from the keyboard and the output state of the ASC is continuously displayed on the monitor screen.
