Hi all,

Could you tell me why do some people avoid clock gating for synchronizers while enabling it for the rest of the design?

Regards,
Sharath
 

Could you kindly explain why is the possibility of metastability occurring more here?
 

The changing clock level may cause this state which can lead to data corruption.. In all the cases, handshaking will be followed and so there is no possibility or less probability of data corruption...
 

Please mark the threads as solved if you think you are satisfied with the answer.
