Building on research conducted at Caltech (California Institute of Technology) by the company's founding team, Fulcrum has developed the industry's first high-performance clockless semiconductor design methodology. Previously, clockless semiconductors were recognized only for their low power benefit, stemming from the elimination of the inefficient clock tree and the benefit provided by built-in circuit-level clock gating. Leveraging our patented clockless design methodology, Fulcrum has taken asynchronous design to new performance levels, achieving Gigahertz performance while still maintaining the power efficiency of perfect clock gating, and reliable operation over an extremely wide range of operating conditions
