Bruce, et al,
"Metastability" was mentioned again recently - I think I read some
messages earlier this year, but can't remember if they were current, or
in the archive, and can't now quickly find them. I think it has to do
with latches getting into an undeterminable state when asynchronous
inputs drift through, so not giving a suitable setup time? I think you
advocate using multi-stage shift-registers to minimise this problem? I
wonder, if you have a moment, if you could walk me through the problem,
and especially the cure?
Thank you,
Peter
