Pipelining Digital Logic In FPGAs

When you first learn about digital logic, it probably seems like it is easy. You learn about AND and OR gates and figure that’s not very hard. However, going from a few basic gates to something like a ...

Master Clock System Uses All Logic, No Microcontrollers

What you see above is a master clock. It is the center of a system that can run an unlimited number of slave clocks, keeping them on-time thanks to its ability to synchronize with an atomic clock.

Pitfalls to avoid in SoC clocking

SoC designs are predominantly synchronous in nature today and therefore majority of the digital logic operates and performs control/data operations w.r.t continuously switching clock signals. This ...
