Vivado synthesis supports sequential always blocks.

  • Describe a sequential circuit with an always block and a sensitivity list that contains the following edge-triggered (with posedge or negedge) events:
    • A mandatory clock event
    • Optional set/reset events (modeling asynchronous set/reset control logic)
  • If no optional asynchronous signal is described, the always block is structured as follows:
    always @(posedge CLK) begin
    <synchronous_part> end
  • If optional asynchronous control signals are modeled, the always block is structured as follows:
    always @(posedge CLK or posedge ACTRL1 or à ) begin
    if (ACTRL1)
    <$asynchronous part> else
    <$synchronous_part> end
