XILINX FPGA: DCM locked Signal

Dec 05, 2003 3 Replies

Hi,



Is the locked signal of DCM, is synchronous / Asynchronous ?



Regards, Muthu


Muthu,

It is generated on the rising edge of CLKIN -- synchronous.

Aust> Hi,

So is possible the situation desscribed below ?

- the DCM is locked on an input clock;

- I stop completly the clock (from outside the FPGA),

- the DLL looses lock, but the LOCKED signal is never updated and remain high

I think I observed something like that. If it is correct, it's a disturbing feature.

Tullio,

That is what the status bit "CLK_IN_STOPPED" is for.
