Abstract
A method for synchronizing an analog-to-digital converter, ADC, the method comprising: stopping, by a processor, a master clock signal to the ADC to pause sampling of the ADC, the master clock signal being supplied by an external master clock to the ADC; detecting, by the ADC, that a synchronization event has occurred whilst the master clock is stopped; restarting, by the processor, the master clock signal to the ADC; resetting, by the ADC, an internal filter at a time that is synchronous with the master clock; and resuming, by the ADC, sampling in response to resetting the internal filter of the ADC.
