The user guide has a few sections about generator lock and aligning the CVO output to an incoming start_of_frame signal. Is it something that can be used to fix your problem? Edit: As gwall pointed out, you will also have to tie the output clock and the output SOF signal to the input clock and the input SOF signal. --- Quote End --- Hi, i read at the ug_vip.pdf, that I need a VCXO to do GenLock (Clock Locking). But I think my Board (Altera Cyclone III Development Board) don't have a VCXO. But do you think its possible to use Frame Locking instead of Clock Locking? I looked this training video from altera: http://www.altera.com/customertraining/webex/implementing_video_systems/player.html And it seems that I only have to tie the input and output SOF signal, like you and gwall said before, to use Frame Locking. If I can do so, is it correct that this could do it in NiosII: while (1) { cvo_1(sof) = cvi_1(sof); cvo_2(sof) = cvi_1(sof); cvo_3(sof) = cvi_1(sof); ... } Thank you!
