Hello everybody, I am having a problem with the binary counter v12.0 reset SCLR signal, when implementing the Xilinx University Programme, Lab9 Project 3.1, 2015x (1). Environment: OS: Linux (Arch Linux) Xilinx Vivado 2018.3 Digilent Basys3 develoment board Verilog HDL Problem description: The project works as expected (counts up to 5 minutes, 0,1 second resolution), the exception is the counter reset button (BTNC, U18) is pressed it only stops the counting, when released, the counter is not reset, instead it keeps counting where it stopped. I am using the Vivado IP Catalog for generating the clock signal and the 4 binary counters(2) used on each 7-Segiment display digit. The Verilog code and constraint file are attached. The binary counter configuration: Implementing using: Fabric Output width: 4 [3:0] Increment Value (Hex): 1 Restrict Count (Hex): 4, 5, 9, 9 (7seg from left ro right) Count Mode: UP Clock Enable (CE): Checked Synchronous Clear(SCLR): Checked Init Value:(Hex): 0 Synchronous Controls and Clock Enable(CE) Priority: Sync Overrides CE Latency Configuration: Manual, 1 Feedback Latency Configuration: Manual, 0 I suspect I am overseeing/forgetting somewhere a simple detail. Any help/clarification is appreciated. Cheers, Rafael.
