Latch

Latch

Function

A level sensitive memory element. The output is the same as the input when the enable is high, and is held at the value of the input when the enable goes low.

Comments

Timing analysis and predictability of latches are very difficult and unreliable, so their use in synthesizable designs is generally avoided.

WIDTH	Width of the input D and output Y ports.
