-Sinks are the opposite of sources. They simply consume tokens from a channel. While sinks may sound like they would be on the other end of a verification setup to sources, this library actually provides another type of sink: A [[sim:scoreboard | scoreboard]]. This type of sink compares the values it receives to a reference value. When verifying a design, this type of sink should be used instead. To keep this group separate, this library only provides two types of (single-ended) simple sink.+Sinks are the opposite of sources. They simply consume tokens from a channel.
