XPM_CDC_ARRAY_SINGLE - 1.0 English

MACRO_GROUP: XPM
MACRO_SUBGROUP: XPM_CDC

Introduction

This macro synthesizes an array of single-bit signals from the source clock domain to the destination clock domain.

For proper operation, the input data must be sampled two or more times by the destination clock. You can define the number of register stages used in the synchronizers. An optional input register can be used to register the input in the source clock domain prior to it being synchronized. You can also enable a simulation feature to generate messages to report any potential misuse of the macro.

Note: This macro expects that the each bit of the source array is independent, and does not have a defined relationship that needs to be preserved. If each bit of the array has a relationship that needs to be preserved, use the XPM_CDC_HANDSHAKE or XPM_CDC_GRAY macros.

Port Descriptions

Table 1. Port Descriptions
Port	I/O	Width	Domain	Sense	Handling if Unused	Function
dest_clk	I	1	N/A	EDGE _RISING	Active	Clock signal for the destination clock domain.
dest_out	O	WIDTH	dest_clk	N/A	Active	This is src_in synchronized to the destination clock domain. This output is registered.
src_clk	I	1	N/A	EDGE _RISING	0	Unused when SRC_INPUT_REG = 0. Input clock signal for src_in if SRC_INPUT_REG = 1.
src_in	I	WIDTH	src_clk	N/A	Active	Input single-bit array to be synchronized to destination clock domain. It is assumed that each bit of the array is unrelated to the others. This is reflected in the constraints applied to this macro. To transfer a binary value losslessly across the two clock domains, use the XPM_CDC_GRAY macro instead.
