The new ARM996HS processor uses Handshake Solutions' novel clockless IC design technology.

ARM and Handshake Solutions, a line of business of Royal Philips Electronics, have announced the new ARM996HS processor using Handshake Solutions' unique clockless IC design technology The compact, clockless ARM996HS processor is an ideal solution for automotive, medical and deeply embedded control applications because of its extremely low power consumption and low electromagnetic interference

The ARM996HS processor is the industry's first licensable clockless processor and directly addresses the needs of design engineers for technology optimised for robust and real-time chip designs.

The ARM996HS processor uses Handshake Solutions' technology, a production-proven methodology for implementing self-timed circuitry which has been used in hundreds of millions of chips for smart cards, advanced pagers, in-vehicle network transceivers and cordless handsets.

By leveraging this low EME technology, the ARM996HS processor can address the market need for very low EMI to reduce packagi
