Reset is one of the most important signals in a design and yet perhaps one of the least respected. What can go wrong and how to correct it. Resets are a necessary part of all synchronous designs ...

Lack of coordination between asynchronous resets and synchronous logic clocks leads to intermittent failures on power up. In this series of articles, we discuss the requirements and challenges of ...

Reset is an important mechanism to bring a digital system into a known state. The need for reset is governed by the system design and application, and various data and control paths are designed to ...

One interesting topic of discussion is whether to use synchronous or asynchronous reset in design. In synchronous reset design, we use reset signal in the D path of flop. Hence, the assertion of reset ...
