FD4CE, FD8CE, and FD16CE are, respectively, 4-, 8-, and 16-bit data registers with clock enable and asynchronous clear. When clock enable (CE) is High and asynchronous clear (CLR) is Low, the data on the data inputs (D) is transferred to the corresponding data outputs (Q) during the Low-to-High clock (C) transition. When CLR is High, it overrides all other inputs and resets the data outputs (Q) Low. When CE is Low, clock transitions are ignored.

The flip-flops are asynchronously cleared, output Low, when power is applied. For CPLDs, the power-on condition can be simulated by applying a High-level pulse on the PRLD global net. FPGAs simulate power-on when global reset (GR) or global set/reset (GSR) is active. GR for XC3000 is active-Low. GR for XC5200 and GSR (XC4000, Spartans, Virtex) default to active-High but can be inverted by adding an inverter in front of the GR/GSR input of the STARTUP, STARTUP_SPARTAN2, or STARTUP_VIRTEX symbol.
