| When creating a design with DDR, it's best to add the DDR interface first, as it is typically also used to generate the clock or clocks that will be used by the rest of your design. | When creating a design with DDR, it's best to add the DDR interface first, as it is typically also used to generate the clock or clocks that will be used by the rest of your design. | ||

| + | If your design requires more clocks than just the ui_clk provided by the MIG, you will need to add a clocking wizard IP that is driven by the MIG's ui_clk. | ||

| + | Finally, double-click on the Clocking Wizard to open and configure it. The third tab, //Output Clocks// contains all of the settings required to specify how many clocks you need, and of what frequencies. The screenshot to the right shows the wizard configured to create a 100 MHz clk_out1 and a 50 MHz clk_out2. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If your design requires additional clocks (such as for an ext_spi_clock pin), they should be added here. | ||

| + | **Note:** //If you aren't sure that you have all of the clocks you need, don't worry, you can always come back and add them by reconfiguring this IP. This task can be performed whenever in the design process it becomes necessary.// | ||
