Abstract
A control system controls First-In First-Out (FIFO) settings of a receiving system. The control system includes a FIFO settings controller that receives a first signal indicative of a first frequency of data received by the receiving system. The FIFO settings controller receives a second signal indicative of a second frequency of a clock that reads the data received by the receiving system. The FIFO settings controller determines a difference (e.g., a parts-per-million (PPM) difference) between the first frequency and the second frequency. The FIFO settings controller sends a third signal indicative of instructions to adjust FIFO configuration settings based on the PPM difference.
