Interactive visualization of clock domains and synchronization techniques in digital systems. Learn about metastability, clock domain crossing, and synchronization methods.
Metastability occurs when a flip-flop receives an input that violates its setup or hold time requirements.
A clock domain is a region of a digital circuit where all flip-flops are clocked by the same clock signal. Different clock domains may have different frequencies or phases, leading to synchronization challenges.
Metastability occurs when a flip-flop receives an input that violates setup or hold time requirements. The flip-flop enters an unstable state that may resolve to either logic level after an unpredictable time.
Synchronization techniques prevent metastability by ensuring data meets timing requirements when crossing clock domains.
First-In-First-Out (FIFO) buffers safely transfer data between different clock domains by using separate read and write pointers.
