Prof. Liang Haojun from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed a new catalytic assembly approach to escape from metastable states in ...

Metastability is a phenomenon that can cause system failure in digital devices such as FPGAs, when a signal is transferred between circuitry in asynchronous clock domains. This article describes ...

Metastability is not just a social disease. It could hamper your software's ability to read good data from hardware. Last month I discussed the general problem of making software that reads ...

Modern SoCs are equipped with complex reset architectures to meet the requirements of high-speed interfaces with increased functionality. These complex reset architectures with multiple reset domains, ...

There is an important difference between knowing something, and being able to prove something. Even in science, there are ideas that everyone shares, but no one can prove. The link between disorder ...

The phenomenon of metastability -- when a system is in a state that is stable but not the one of least energy -- is widely observed in nature and technology. Yet, many aspects underlying the ...

(Nanowerk News) They say diamonds are forever, but diamonds in fact are a metastable form of carbon that will slowly but eventually transform into graphite, another form of carbon. Being able to ...
