OFD, OFD4, OFD8, and OFD16 are single and multiple output D flip-flops except for XC5200 and XC9000. The flip-flops exist in an input/output block (IOB) for XC3000, XC4000, Spartan, and SpartanXL. The outputs (for example, Q3 - Q0) are connected to OPADs or IOPADs. The data on the D inputs is loaded into the flip-flops during the Low-to-High clock (C) transition and appears on the Q outputs.

The flip-flops are asynchronously cleared with Low outputs 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.
