hello i do a clock to 24 hours in vhdl. i am using cyclone 2. I do vhdl files, test them with model sim, after that the comipations goes on with warnings, but it do not work on the fpga ? why ? i can not understand please help

Post some code and we can have a look. From what you say, I can only guess that you have use a bad coding style, but without seeing the code I cant say any more.

Here is your big problem - you are generating a load of clocks in logic. Dont do that. Generate enable signals instead and run ALL registers from the system clock "clk". also, your derived clocks look at falling edge, and other clocks look for rising edge. Convention is to have all clocks work on the rising edge. For a clock deisgn, you seem to have made it very complicated.

so you tell me that i have a single clock ? how can i reach this ? when 1 min goes the eneable of the counter to 10 min should be on for 1 pulse of the shared single clock ? i am not sure that is your idea ... the fpga module takes 50 mhz clock input - is this the shared clock that i should use or devided clock with T with 1 sec is it good idea to use frequency devidor to reach 1 second T or i shoud use enable ?

i do this design

counter to 2 <- coutner to 10 <- counter to 6 <- counter to 10

i want to make counter to 24 hours
the counter to 24 works fine
the counter to 60 works fine
whne i connect the two counters it start to work not properly
whne it reach 9 it jumps to 12 ... when it goest to 19 it jumps in 22
when reach 29 i jump to 32
can it be from derived clockes or it is somethin else
how can i solve this problem ?
please help

Use the 50Mhz clock. Never use derived clocks (unless you use a PLL)

The template you should use for enabled registers is this:

process(clk_50MHz, reset) begin if reset = '1' then --reset D elsif rising_edge(clk_50MHz) then if enable = '1' then --this can be things like "enable minute" or something q <= d; end if; end if; end process;

--- Quote End ---

but how can i do addition with enables ?

process(clk_50MHz, reset)
begin
  if reset = '1' then
    --reset D
  elsif rising_edge(clk_50MHz) then
    if enable = '1' then --this can be things like "enable minute" or something
      q <= q + 1;
    end if;
  end if;
end process;
