Primitive: General Clock Mux Buffer

  • PRIMITIVE_GROUP: CLOCK
  • PRIMITIVE_SUBGROUP: MUX
  • Families: UltraScale, UltraScale+

Introduction

This design element is a general clock buffer, based off of the BUFGCTRL, that can select between two input clocks, I0 and I1. When the select input (S) is Low, the signal on I0 is selected for output (O). When the select input (S) is High, the signal on I1 is selected for output. BUFGMUX BUFGMUX_1 are distinguished by the state the output assumes when that output switches between clocks in response to a change in its select input. BUFGMUX assumes output state 0 and BUFGMUX_1 assumes output state 1.

Port Descriptions

Port Direction Width Function
I0 Input 1 Clock buffer input. This input is reflected on the output O when the S input is zero.
I1 Input 1 Clock buffer input. This input is reflected on the output O when the S input is one.
O Output 1 Clock buffer output.
S Input 1 Clock buffer select input. When Low, selects I0 input and when High, the I1 input is selected.

Available Attributes

Attribute Type Allowed Values Default Description
CLK_SEL_TYPE STRING "SYNC", "ASYNC" "SYNC" Specifies synchronous (glitch-free) or asynchronous clock switching.
