Synchronising Reset APP Note

[Benjamin Todd]

Hi everyone,
Following the discussions about synchronising the Asynch reset of a circuit,
can anyone point me in the direction of an App Note, or a study that shows
the problems of NOT performing the synchronisation of an external Reset?
(Described in "Bulletproofing CPLD design" thread earlier)
Thanks!
Ben
