Abstract
The rising edge triggered flip-flops and falling edge triggered flip-flops in one or more clock domains of a target system can be simultaneously initialized to predetermined logic states by activating the flip-flop set/clear inputs, freezing the flip-flop clock signals high or low, subsequently deactivating the flip-flop set/clear inputs, and then re-enabling the clock signals.
