Once a system clock generation and distribution scheme is designed, we need to consider the effects of integrating the clocking circuits with the FPGA system. In a multi-FPGA prototype in particular, it is essential that all FPGAs become operational at the same time i.e., have their resets de-asserted on the same clock edge.
When PLLs are used either on the board and/or inside the FPGAs, the system start- up must be delayed from after power-up until all timing circuits (PLLs) are stable and phase locked to their respective sources.
In this case, we employ a global reset circuit that holds the whole system at the reset state until all PLLs in the system are locked. There is more detail on this in chapter 8, however, during board development, it is important to make external PLL device locked an reset signals available at the pins of at least one FPGA so that they might be gated into an overall reset condition tree.
