Title: Enhancing CDC Verification in Vivado with ALINT-PRO

Description: As FPGA designs grow in size and complexity, the challenge of Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) verification becomes increasingly critical. Improper handling of asynchronous clock boundaries can lead to metastability, glitches, and loss of data coherency—causing unpredictable functional behavior in hardware. While AMD (Xilinx) Vivado Design Suite includes built-in CDC checks, its capabilities may be insufficient for complex, multi-asynchronous clock designs. Vivado's CDC reporting provides valuable insights, including Xilinx-specific checks such as the ASYNC_REG attribute, but lacks the depth of specialized CDC verification tools like ALINT-PRO. In this webinar, we will compare Vivado’s built-in CDC verification with the advanced capabilities of ALINT-PRO. Using real-world design examples, we will highlight CDC issues that Vivado may miss and demonstrate how ALINT-PRO enhances CDC analysis and debugging. Finally, we will showcase a case study on Ethernet MAC CDC verification, featuring multiple asynchronous clock domains.
