1.1.1.4. Launch and Latch Edges
The launch edge of the clock signal is the clock edge that sends data out of a register or other sequential element, and acts as a source for the data transfer. The latch edge is the active clock edge that captures data at the data port of a register or other sequential element, acting as a destination for the data transfer.
You create define constraints for all clocks and assign the constraints to nodes in your design. These clock constraints provide the structure required for repeatable data relationships. If you do not constrain the clocks in your design, the Intel® Quartus® Prime software analyzes in terms of a 1 GHz clock to maximize timing based Fitter effort. To ensure realistic slack values, you must constrain all clocks in your design with real values.
