Multiple Clock Domain Design

In the practical ASIC and SOC designs the multiple clocks are used and the designs are called as multiple clock domain designs. These kinds of designs need to be described using the efficient design architectures and Verilog RTL. This chapter focuses in the key design techniques which are used to describe the multiple clock domain designs while passing data from one of the clock domain to other. The chapter key highlights are the detail description for the synchronizers, data path, and control path synchronization logic using the efficient Verilog RTL. This chapter also discusses on the key design challenges in the multiple clock domain designs and even this chapter focuses on the design guidelines to describe the efficient clock domain designs.
