Adam Taylor (@adamt99)

Throughout his career Adam has used FPGA’s to implement a wide variety of solutions from RADAR to safety critical control systems, with interesting stops in image processing and cryptography along the way. He has a real love for FPGA and Engineering, in 2007 he started writing about FPGA’s, examining how to use them in different applications, techniques and processes. This developed most recently into his epic blog hosted by Xilinx on the Xcell Daily blog which contains over 100 instalments focusing upon how to use the Xilinx Zynq SoC based around the Microzed

Yes if you set up the Clocking wizard correctly it can, just set the clock out to 200Mhzit is really quite simple to do

Re: Does anyone have experience in RFSoCs?

I have a ZCU111, take a look at PYNQ.io there are a number of overlays for the RFSoC and creating your own is not too difficult. 

Re: recovery/removal violations, does it always matter?

Reply posted 5 years ago (06/08/2019)
The transition is caused by the reset signal being released in the set up / hold period of the flip flop, not due to the input transitioning in that same window. It...

Re: recovery/removal violations, does it always matter?

The simplest way it can cause an issue is by causing metastability in flip flops if the reset is removed too close to the active edge of the clock. Of course depending...
