Abstract
Synchronization circuitry and synchronization system for synchronizing converters/controllers that are electrically-coupled to a common synchronization node. The synchronization system includes synchronization circuitry, oscillation circuitry, and a leading edge detector and pulse generator. The synchronization circuitry includes pull-up circuitry and pull-down circuitry for generating a voltage pulse-train at the synchronization node. The oscillation circuitry controls which of the pull-up and the pull-down circuitry is driven ON and which is driven OFF.
