LDPE is a transparent data latch with asynchronous preset and gate enable. When the asynchronous preset (PRE) is High, it overrides the other input and presets the data (Q) output High. Q reflects the data (D) input while the gate (G) input and gate enable (GE) are High. If GE is low, data on D cannot be latched. The data on the D input during the High-to-Low gate transition is stored in the latch. The data on the Q output remains unchanged as long as G or GE remains Low.

The latch is asynchronously preset, output High, when power is applied. FPGAs simulate power-on when global set/reset (GSR) is active. GSR (XC4000X, SpartanXL, Virtex) default to active-High but can be inverted by adding an inverter in front of the GR/GSR input of the STARTUP or the STARTUP_VIRTEX symbol.
