Self-resetting circuit timing correction

Abstract

A system and method with a self-reset circuit for synchronizing an input data path with a timing control path. The self-resetting circuit includes a normal-mode input detect circuit which detects an arrival of data from the input data path into the self-reset circuit and generates a normal-mode control signal in response thereto. The self-resetting circuit also includes a delay-mode input detect circuit for detecting the arrival of the data from the input data path and which generates a delay-mode control signal in response thereto. A toggle circuit is provided for disabling the normal-mode input detect circuit while simultaneously enabling the delay-mode input detect circuit. In response to the toggle circuit disabling the normal-mode input detect circuit, the delay-mode control signal propagates through a delay gate, such that said delay-mode control signal synchronizes said timing control path with respect to said data input path.
