17 years ago --- Quote Start --- For simple reasons already explained by others, if you can't specify a timing relation between a and b input, no tool will be able to perform a timing analysis. You have to exepect glitches at c. If c is only clocking a single FF as in your example, there are probably no consequences for your design, otherwise you should be cautious. As an additional remark: The problems brought on by such designs are typically more serious with rare timing violation events. You don't see them in a test, but the system reveals unreliable in operation at customer site. --- Quote End --- Thank you for reminding, FvM! In my design,just as you said,the c is only clocking a single FF. when a or b changed, the "out" must flip,i don't know how to achive it except the way i posted.
