Slack:Not operational: Clock Skew>Data Delay ...

Hi All, 

In Quartus II, 

the classic timing analysis report shows: 

Slack:Not operational: Clock Skew>Data Delay, 

but,when i download the whole design to the fpga,  

it can works without any error. 

meanwhile, when i right-click the red information in the report  

and chose "locate in RTL viewer" , could see the two register 

use two different clock, which is right a part of the design. 

i don't think this situation should be analyzed with the regulation 

of "clock hold analysis" ,for the two register use different clock. 

but how should i deal with the error information (with red color) 

in the classic timing analysis report? 

Thank you!

Hi, 

 

that means you have a clock domain crossing here. Connecting the register simply together will not work in all cases. There is a lot of stuff in the forum regarding clock domain crossing. 

 

Kind regards

Pletz,thank you for your reply. 

the rtl view image shows in this link web: 

http://hi.baidu.com/cowoho/album/item/96120d3304ed38d91b4cff5a.html 

it seems not a example that should be analyzed with the regulation of "clock skew< or > data delay", but in the Quartus II software,it was judged to "clock > data delay",in the classic timing analysis report table with red color.when right-click the red information in the report and chose "locate in RTL viewer" ,we could see the image like above. 

i want to ask:is this design showed in the image reasonable&#65311;i think if "clk1/clk2" could fit "data1/data2" in timing, there should not be errors in this part, really? and, if yes,could i neglect the warn of quartus? 

waiting for help...thanks!
