ACT

Hardware description language and core tools for designing asynchronous circuits.

Desktopfree

ACT is a hardware description language and set of core tools purpose-built for designing asynchronous (clockless) circuits, distinct from mainstream synchronous HDLs like Verilog or VHDL. It's built and installed from source, includes a growing standard library of asynchronous design patterns, and integrates with the related ACT EDA flow for synthesis. It's aimed at researchers and engineers working specifically on asynchronous VLSI design.
