Synopsys
This paper explains the many types of synchronization issues that occur when clocks and data signals cross from one clock domain to another. In all cases, the issues covered here involve clock domains that
are asynchronous with respect to one another. Along with each issue, one or more DesignWare solutions is
outlined. The topics and solutions include:
- Basic synchronization—DW_sync
- Temporal event synchronization—DW_pulse_sync, DW_pulseack_sync
- Simple data transfer synchronization—DW_data_sync, DW_data_sync_na, DW_data_sync_1c
- Data flow synchronization—DW_fifo_s2_sf, DW_fifo_2c_df, DW_stream_sync
- Reset sequencing—DW_reset_sync
- Related clock system data synchronization—DW_data_qsync_hl, DW_data_qsync_lh
