Input Timing Verification
Consider an application that uses an external trigger and an external clock.
The trigger and clock signals are routed to an internal D flip-flop (DFF). To
ensure that the trigger is sampled on a particular clock edge, the setup and
hold times of the internal DFF must be met:
• Recall that a “terminal” is a PFI pin, RTSI pin, or PXI_Star pin.
• Let TriggerDelay be the delay from the trigger terminal to the DFF.
• Let ClockDelay be the delay from the clock terminal to the DFF.
