Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) When variable latency for digital circuits are assumed, circuits can work with a small clock period that
has the possibility to occur timing errors. If a timing error is detected, a correctness of primitive computation of
the circuit is kept by correcting wrong values by a technique such like Razor flip-flop. Approximate computing will
realize if we can appropriately control wrong values generated by timing errors. In our research, we aim to realize
approximate computing by using general-synchronous circuits which allowed variable latency. In such approach, it
is considered that the clock period and input sequences affect the accuracy of outputs of combinational circuits. In
this paper, we investigate the influences of input sequences and clock period to the outputs of an adder circuit by a
gate level simulation. From the experiments, we found that there is a relation between the delay and the difference
of inputs and the average difference of outputs against the correct value is almost 0% when the difference of inputs
is small.
