3 Synchronous Resets Advantages & Disadvantages Advantages Easier to work with cycle based simulators (according to the RMM) Typically recommended for DT design Glitch filtering from reset combinational logic (to make up for poor design practices) Glitch filtering if reset is in a mission-critical application Disadvantages May not be able to come out of Unknown-X during simulation Adds delay to data path Asynchronous Reset Problem Problem: Asynchronous reset removal Will reset removal meet recovery time specification? t pd t rec is asynchronous to Potential problem: flip-flop could go metastable on reset-release if reset removal violates clock set/hold time 9 of 11 of Asynchronous Resets Advantages & Disadvantages 1 of Advantages Reset is immediate No problem related to Unknown-X-propagation in design simulation Does not interfere or add extra delay to the data path Very easy to implement Disadvantages Asynchronous signal - can go metastable on release Noisy reset line could cause unwanted resets DT designs prefer synchronous designs (??)... but there is a solution!... but this can be filtered... but this can be fixed 12 of Reset Synchronizer Advantage: Asynchronous reset assertion Advantage: Synchronous reset removal When reset is de-asserted asynchronously master is removed synchronously master pad_ pad_ Asynchronous reset assertion Guideline: EVERY ASI USING AN ASYNHRONOUS RESET SHOULD INLUDE A RESET SYNHRONIZER IRUIT!!

5 Reset Buffer Tree Driven from a Leaf-Driver lock lock distribution tree instantiation Sometimes it is difficult to tap into the center of the clock tree Resetsynchronizer is driven from a fanned-out clock master Reset distribution tree (reset must be removed before the next rising clock edges) Asynchronous Reset Glitch iltering Glitches on the input might cause stray resets Solution: glitch-filter on the input glitch delayed reset d f master filtered d delay f Low-asserted asynchronous reset Delayed reset De Morgan equivalent "or"-gate iltered reset 17 of 19 of Reset Buffer Tree Driven from a Source-Driver lock 1 of lock distribution tree instantiation Resetsynchronizer is driven from a source clock driver master Reset distribution tree (reset must not be removed before the rising clock edges) Asynchronous Reset & DT 2 of The process of applying the ATPG vectors to create a test is based on: scanning a known state into all the flip-flops in the chip switching the flip-flops from scan shift mode, to functional data input mode applying one functional clock switching the flip-flops back to scan shift mode to scan out the result of the one functional clock while scanning in the next test vector During the above process, the designer must insure that under NO ONDITIONS, an asynchronous set/reset can occur and thus corrupt the input vectors The asynchronous reset must be held in the inactive state during the entire test What about coverage to the portion of the chip controlled by the reset?
6 Asynchronous Reset & DT an I use an asynchronous reset with Design or Test (DT) strategies? scan in all ones into the scan chain issue and release the asynchronous reset scan out the result and scan in all zeros issue and release the reset scan out the result set the reset input to the non reset state and then apply the ATPG generated vectors Multiple lock Domains Synchronized Reset Removal This technique works to force ordered reset removal 1st a b c 21 of This will test for the reset line attached to either the asynchronous set or reset of a flip-flop 23 of a 2nd Resets are removed in an ordered sequence b 3rd c Multiple lock Domains Non-Synchronized Reset Removal 22 of This technique works if small reset removal timing differences are not a problem a a All resets removed at nearly the same time b b c c What About Synchronizing Multiple ASIs? 2 of Synchronizing reset removal on the same ASI is easily handled How do we precisely synchronize reset removal on multiple ASIs? We need to consider: Board layout and trace delays Mixture of fast and slow ASIs (due to process differences)
7 25 of Actual Design Solution High speed data acquisition product our interleaved identical ASIs each ASI samples the same data stream at phased differently from the other ASIs each ASI outputs a data value and a memory address to be stored the correct sample from each ASI must be correctly ordered and stored into address address counters are free-running after reset How can the four ASIs be reliably synchronized and sequenced to a common reset removal? One solution - "digital calibration" Valid "Ramp" Signal 27 of 1 Synchronizing a "Ramp" (correct synchronization) Synchronized example: input data "ramp" Data is being sampled by four different ASIs A E ASI#1 Sample #1 ASI#2 Sample #1 ASI#3 Sample #1 ASI# Sample #1 ASI#1 Sample #2 ASI#2 Sample #2 ASI#3 Sample #2 ASI# Sample #2 ASI#1 Sample #3 ASI#2 Sample #3 ASI#3 Sample #3 ASI# Sample #3 ASI#1 Sample # ASI#2 Sample # ASI#3 Sample # ASI# Sample # RAM1 Sample #1 RAM2 Sample #1 RAM3 Sample #1 RAM Sample #1 RAM1 Sample #2 RAM2 Sample #2 RAM3 Sample #2 RAM Sample #2 RAM1 Sample #3 RAM2 Sample #3 RAM3 Sample #3 RAM Sample #3 RAM1 Sample # RAM2 Sample # RAM3 Sample # RAM Sample # Synchronizing a "Ramp" (flawed synchronization) Problem example: input data "ramp" Data sampling is not synchronized A E ASI#1 Sample #1 ASI# Sample #1 ASI#1 Sample #2 ASI#3 Sample #1 ASI# Sample #2 ASI#1 Sample #3 ASI#2 Sample #1 ASI#3 Sample #2 ASI# Sample #3 ASI#1 Sample # ASI#2 Sample #2 ASI#3 Sample #3 ASI# Sample # RAM1 Sample #1 RAM2 Sample #1 RAM3 Sample #1 RAM Sample #1 RAM1 Sample #2 RAM2 Sample #2 RAM3 Sample #2 RAM Sample #2 RAM1 Sample #3 RAM2 Sample #3 RAM3 Sample #3 RAM Sample #3 RAM1 Sample # RAM2 Sample # RAM3 Sample # RAM Sample # A E E 5 6 A 26 of 2 of ASI#1 Sample #1 ASI#2 Sample #1 ASI#3 Sample #1 ASI# Sample #1 ASI#1 Sample #2 ASI#2 Sample #2 ASI#3 Sample #2 ASI# Sample #2 ASI#1 Sample #3 ASI#2 Sample #3 ASI#3 Sample #3 ASI# Sample #3 ASI#1 Sample # ASI#2 Sample # ASI#3 Sample # ASI# Sample # ASI#1 Sample #5 ASI#2 Sample #5 ASI#3 Sample #5 ASI# Sample #5 ASI#1 Sample #6 ASI#2 Sample #6
