fix(fpga): registered reset fan-out at 400 MHz; default USB to FT2232H
...
Replace direct !reset_n async sense with a registered active-high reset_h
(max_fanout=50) in nco_400m_enhanced, cic_decimator_4x_enhanced, and
ddc_400m. The prior single-LUT1 / 700+ load net was the root cause of
WNS=-0.626 ns in the 400 MHz clock domain on the xc7a50t build. Vivado
replicates the constrained register into ≈14 regional copies, each driving
≤50 loads, closing timing at 2.5 ns.
Change radar_system_top default USB_MODE from 0 (FT601) to 1 (FT2232H).
FT601 remains available for the 200T premium board via explicit parameter
override; the 50T production wrapper already hard-codes USB_MODE=1.
Regression: add usb_data_interface_ft2232h.v to PROD_RTL lint list and
both system-top TB compile commands; fix legacy radar_system_tb hierarchical
probe from gen_ft601.usb_inst to gen_ft2232h.usb_inst.
Golden reference files (rtl_bb_dc.csv, rx_final_doppler_out.csv,
golden_doppler.mem) regenerated to reflect the +1-cycle registered-reset
boundary behaviour; Receiver golden-compare passes 18/18 checks.
All 25 regression tests pass (0 failures, 0 skipped).

Fix CDC reset domain bug (P0), strengthen testbenches with 31 structural assertions
...
Split cdc_adc_to_processing reset_n into src_reset_n/dst_reset_n so source
and destination clock domains use correctly-synchronized resets. Previously
cdc_chirp_counter's destination-side sync chain (100MHz) was reset by
sys_reset_120m_n (120MHz domain), causing 30 CDC critical warnings.
RTL changes:
- cdc_modules.v: split reset port, source logic uses src_reset_n,
destination sync chains + output logic use dst_reset_n
- radar_system_top.v: cdc_chirp_counter gets proper per-domain resets
- ddc_400m.v: CDC_FIR_i/q use reset_n_400m (src) and reset_n (dst)
- formal/fv_cdc_adc.v: updated wrapper for new port interface
Build 7 fixes (previously untouched):
- radar_transmitter.v: SPI level-shifter assigns, STM32 GPIO CDC sync
- latency_buffer_2159.v: BRAM read registration
- constraints: ft601 IOB -quiet fix
- tb_latency_buffer.v: updated for BRAM changes
Testbench hardening (tb_cdc_modules.v, +31 new assertions):
- A5-A7: split-domain reset tests (staggered deassertion, independent
dst reset while src active — catches the P0 bug class)
- A8: port connectivity (no X/Z on outputs)
- B7: cdc_single_bit port connectivity
- C6: cdc_handshake reset recovery + port connectivity
Full regression: 13/13 test suites pass (257 total assertions).

Achieve full timing closure on xc7a100tcsg324-1 at 400 MHz (0 violations)
...
Complete FPGA timing closure across all clock domains after 9 iterative
Vivado builds. WNS improved from -48.325ns to +0.018ns (107,886 endpoints).
RTL fixes for 400 MHz timing:
- NCO: 6-stage pipeline with DSP48E1 phase accumulator, registered LUT
index (Fix D splits address decode from ROM read), distributed RAM
- CIC: explicit DSP48E1 PCOUT->PCIN cascade for 5 integrator stages,
CREG=1 on integrator_0 to eliminate fabric->DSP setup violation
- DDC: 400 MHz reset synchronizer (async-assert/sync-deassert),
active-high reset register for DSP48E1 RST ports, posedge output stage
- FIR: 5-stage binary adder tree pipeline (7-cycle latency)
- FFT: 5-cycle butterfly pipeline with registered twiddle index,
XPM_MEMORY_TDPRAM for data storage
- XDC: CDC false paths, async reset false paths, CIC comb multicycle paths
Final Build 9 timing (all MET):
adc_dco_p (400 MHz): WNS = +0.278ns
clk_100m (100 MHz): WNS = +0.018ns
clk_120m_dac (120 MHz): WNS = +0.992ns
ft601_clk_in (100 MHz): WNS = +5.229ns
Cross-domain (adc_dco_p->clk_100m): WNS = +7.105ns

Achieve timing closure: DSP48E1 pipelines, 4-stage NCO, 28-bit CIC, ASYNC_REG
...
Phase 0+ timing optimization (attempts #13-22 + implementation):
NCO (nco_400m_enhanced.v):
- 4-stage pipeline: DSP48E1 accumulate -> LUT read -> negate -> quadrant MUX
- DSP48E1 phase accumulator in P=P+C mode (eliminates 8-stage CARRY4 chain)
- Registered phase_inc_dithered to break cascaded 32-bit add path
DDC (ddc_400m.v):
- Direct DSP48E1 instantiation for I/Q mixers (AREG=1, BREG=1, MREG=1, PREG=1)
- CEP=1, RSTP=!reset_n for proper pipeline control
- 3-stage dsp_valid_pipe for PREG=1 latency
- Behavioral sim model under ifdef SIMULATION for Icarus compatibility
CIC (cic_decimator_4x_enhanced.v):
- 28-bit accumulators (was 36) per CIC width formula: 18 + 5*log2(4) = 28
- Removed integrator/comb saturation (CIC uses wrapping arithmetic by design)
- Pipelined output saturation comparison
CDC/ASYNC_REG:
- ASYNC_REG attribute on all CDC synchronizer registers (cdc_modules.v,
radar_system_top.v, usb_data_interface.v)
- Sync reset in generate blocks (cdc_modules.v)
Results: Vivado post-implementation WNS=+1.196ns, 0 failing endpoints,
850 LUTs (1.34%), 466 FFs (0.37%), 2 DSP48E1 (0.83%) on xc7a100t.
All testbenches pass: 241/244 (3 known stub failures).
