How to create Clock signals in FPGA for external circuits with Dsp Builder

Hi all!

I'm using a Stratix II Development board and Dsp Builder 6.0. I would like to generate some clock signals in my FPGA to drive exernal circuits on a self-made daugther card. How can I do it with Dsp Builder.

Waiting for your answers please!

Thanks in advance.

    There isn't really a function that generates clocks in DSP Builder. With that said, you can probably use a modulo 2 counter to produce a clock like signal and send it out via an output pin... Then you can possibly use that as a clock...

    Thanks for your reply.

    I've also noticed that the block "Pattern" with bits "10" inside could generate the same clock signal.
