Abstract:
A skew correction system includes delay circuits positioned in front of sampling circuitry. A skew correction controller first delays an input clock signal to create hold violations. Then with, with the delay of an input clock signal fixed at a reference delay amount, the skew correction controller delays input data signals first to remove or reduce the hold violations, and then to create setup violations. Based on the delaying, the skew correction controller identifies data valid windows for the input data signals, and in turn, identifies target delay amounts that position a delayed clock signal in target sampling positions.

Claim (Index 14):
A circuit comprising:\n a controller configured to:\n receive a plurality of sampling analyses over a plurality of iterations of a skew correction process, the plurality of sampling analysis determined from sampling circuitry configured to sample a plurality of delayed data signals in response to receipt of a delayed clock signal; \n during receipt of the sampling analyses, determine a plurality of data valid windows; and \n calculate average delay amounts for a plurality of data delay circuits from the plurality of data valid windows, the plurality of data delay circuits configured to delay a plurality of input data signals to generate the plurality of delayed data signals.
