Systems and methods for performing output delay adjustment are provided for application in serial-connected devices operating as slave devices. A master device provides a clock to the first slave device, and each slave device passes the clock to the next slave device in turn, and the last slave device returns the clock to the master device. The master device compares the outgoing clock to the returned clock and determines if an output delay adjustment is needed. If so, the master device generates and outputs commands for the slave devices to perform output delay adjustment. The slave devices apply the output delay to the clock signal, but may also apply the delay to other output signals. Each of the slave devices has a circuit for performing output delay adjustment. In some implementations, each slave device is a memory device, and the master device is a memory controller. |
