17 years ago --- Quote Start --- This a classical example of a gated clock, it's used in the design to clock other modules Please consult Quartus handbook or FPGA/HDL text books why it's a possible issue. I guess, you can see in timing simulation, if you look sharp. Generally, I see that there are possible reasons to use a DPLL (digital PLL) respectively ADPLL (all digital PLL) in a design. Apart from practical purpose in some design, it may be used for educational purposes, e.g. to better understand the stuff presented in Best's book. Please consider, that I didn't yet try to use the code. I didn't say, that the gated clock issue is a reason, why the design doesn't work. There may be a much more basic problem with the points, vernmid mentioned. But it would be a problem, when using the code in a real design. --- Quote End --- Thanx for the input. Any idea of other methods for clock data recovery other than ADPLL? (verilog applicable methods)..?
