This paper addresses the stability issue of a class of delayed switched cascade nonlinear systems consisting of separate subsystems and coupling terms between them. Some global and local asymptotic stability sufficient conditions are proposed, drawing stability conclusion of the overall cascade system from those of separate systems. These results essentially rely on the following observation: For a general delayed switched nonlinear system being asymptotically stable, the trajectories of the perturbed system asymptotically approach zero if so does the perturbation. This observation is one of the main results in this paper.
