FIFO:How to slow down the clock Frequency from 50 Mhz

once I enable your counter, it is writing at full clock speed to the fifo

once the fifo is full, the counter just continues counting

by the time it start reading and printing the first value to the serial port, the fifo is probably already overflowing, as I did print some hello word message. Printing to the serial port is very slow compared to the counter filling up your fifo, and counter counts at something like 50MHz I guess (?)

* once the fifo starts overflowing, not all counter values will go into the fifo, as it is full, and you're only slowly reading the values from the fifo
