2.7 Clock Macros

Clock macros provided in the Libero SoC macro catalog are used to assign signals to the global buffers and row global buffers.

Table 2-1. Clock Macros
Macro NameDescriptionFunctional Symbol
CLKINTRoutes clock signal from the fabric routing or regular I/O to the global clock network.
CLKINT_PRESERVESimilar to CLKINT, but the signals routed through the CLKINT_PRESERVE macro will never be demoted or optimized by the Libero Compile tool.
GCLKINTGated version of CLKINT with an enable signal (EN) from the FPGA fabric to gate the clock.
RCLKINTRoutes clock signal from global buffers, regional clock buffers, or fabric routing to RGBs.
RGCLKINTGated version of RCLKINT with an enable signal (EN) from the FPGA fabric to gate the clock.
CLKBUFDrives a global buffer from a preferred clock input pad.
