Set the ASYNC_REG property to true on all synchronizer flip-flops. This preserves the synchronizer cells through synthesis and implementation optimization and improves placement for better mean time between failures (MTBF) statistics.

For any clock group constraints enabled in either table, the wizard sets missing ASYNC_REG properties to true. For details on the ASYNC_REG property, refer to Vivado Design Suite Properties Reference Guide (UG912).
