ILD_1 is a transparent data latch, which can be used to hold transient data entering a chip. When the gate input (G) is Low, data on the data input (D) appears on the data output (Q). Data on D during the Low-to-High G transition is stored in the latch.

The latch is asynchronously cleared with Low output when power is applied. 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.

For information on legal IFD, IFD_1, ILD, and ILD_1 combinations, refer to the “ILD, 4, 8, 16” section.
