digital logic - fpga verilog dual access


I need to write to a register from 2 sources.. in this case, a pci host and a microcontroller. The 2 will never access the register at the same time (basically once the PCI is done , it hands it over the other host, which will then have exclusive access until it's finished).


Since the clock domains are different, I can't just have multiple processes writing to the same register..


always @(posedge pciclk or negedge nrst)
if pci_wr & pci_addr == 0
cntl_reg = pci_data

always @(posedge mcclk or negedge nrst)
if mc_wr & mc_addr == 0

cntl_reg = mc_data

So how is this typically done? Not sure if this a fundamental architectural question, or just a syntax question on how to write the sensitivity list.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
