Hi newsgroup people,
one question regarding global reset paths in different FPGAs:
I have found out that in the new EC/ECP FPGAs from Lattice there is only one global asynchronous reset paths. There is one component called "GSR" (global set / reset) which has to be fed with the reset signal which is used as global asynchronous reset. This component can be instantiated only once in the top level.
So what about the idea to synchronize one asynchronous reset signal into different clock domains ? If there is only one global reset paths the synchronization with different clocks would make no sense then ?
What about Altera and Xilinx FPGAs ? Do they have more than one global reset path ?
Thank you for your information.
Rgds
