//
// Abstract: Single bit clock domain crossing synchronizer. Exactly the same
//           as altera_std_synchronizer.v, except that the embedded false
//           path constraint is removed in this module. If you use this
//           module, you will have to apply the appropriate timing
//           constraints.
//
//           We expect to make this a standard Quartus atom eventually.
//
//           Composed of two or more flip flops connected in series.
//           Random metastable condition is simulated when the 
//           __ALTERA_STD__METASTABLE_SIM macro is defined.
//           Use +define+__ALTERA_STD__METASTABLE_SIM argument 
//           on the Verilog simulator compiler command line to 
//           enable this mode. In addition, define the macro
//           __ALTERA_STD__METASTABLE_SIM_VERBOSE to get console output 
//           with every metastable event generated in the synchronizer.
