Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure include a data storage controller that includes a main circuit, a synchronization circuit, and a detection circuit. The main circuit is configured to receive a test signal, generate a data signal based on the test signal, and generate a compensation signal based on the test signal and a phase shift selected from N predetermined phase shifts. N may be an integer greater than one. The synchronization circuit is configured to receive the data signal and the data compensation signal, and generate a delayed data signal and a latched compensation signal in response to the data signal. The detection circuit is configured to determine whether rising and falling edges of the latched compensation signal and corresponding rising and falling edges of the delayed data signal are synchronized.
