A self calibrating register. In representative embodiments, registers for increasing source synchronous input/output (I/O) data rates by counteracting the inherent systematic sources of system mismatch are disclosed. Systematic sources of system mismatch between bit-line paths and devices, as for example printed circuit board path lengths, package trace lengths, on-chip clock routing, clock skew, device turn-on voltages, etc. are balanced out with respect to a reference clock signal by programmed delays of the data signals. The appropriate delays are obtained via phase shift detection circuitry and are then applied by control circuitry to signal delay circuitry.
