Vivado synthesis allows the description of a sequential process using a wait statement. The sequential process is described without a sensitivity list.

The wait statement is the first statement and the condition in the wait statement describes the sequential logic clock.

Important: You cannot have both, a sensitivity list and a wait statement, for the same sequential process. Only one wait statement is allowed for the sequential process.
