Abstract
In described examples, a device includes a transmitter, a receiver, and a control circuit. The transmitter transmits a clock signal, and the receiver receives a response signal. The control circuit is coupled to the transmitter and the receiver. The control circuit causes the transmitter to transmit a first clock signal with a first clock period, and to transmit a second clock signal with a second clock period greater than the first clock period. The control circuit determines whether a first pattern of a signal responsive to the first clock signal is the same as a second pattern of a signal responsive to the second clock period. If the patterns are the same, the control circuit delays the clock signal with a delay responsive to the first clock period to generate a delayed clock signal. The receiver samples response signals using the delayed clock signal during normal operation of the device.
