Abstract
An apparatus for setting the timing of a triggering edge of a clock signal with respect to received parallel data. The apparatus includes a set of flip-flops including respective data inputs, respective clock inputs, and respective data outputs, wherein the set of flip-flops are configured to generate a set of output data at the data output based on parallel data applied to the respective data inputs in response to a triggering edge of a clock signal applied to the clock inputs; a variable delay element configured to apply a calibrated delay to the clock signal; and a controller configured to generate a control signal for the variable delay element to apply the calibrated delay to the clock signal based on the set of output data generated at the data outputs of the set of flip-flops.
