发明名称 System and method for synchronizing a selected master circuit with a slave circuit by receiving and forwarding a control signal between the circuits and operating the circuits based on their received control signal
摘要 A mechanism for synchronizing a multiple-circuit system, includes (a) selecting a master circuit from a plurality of circuits, the remaining circuits including at least one slave circuit, (b) receiving, at each of the plurality of circuits, input data and a local clock signal associated with the input data, (d) generating at least one control signal at the master circuit using the local clock signal of the master circuit, (e) outputting the control signal from the master circuit, (f) forwarding the control signal to the slave circuit(s), (g) looping back the control signal to the master circuit, (h) processing the input data at the slave circuit(s) using the forwarded control signal, (i) processing the input data at the master circuit using the looped-back control signal, and (j) outputting the processed data from each of the plurality of circuits.
