US Patent 11936393 Cooperative timing alignment using synchronization pulses

Techniques for cooperative timing alignment using synchronization pulses are described. The techniques can include generating, at an integrated circuit device, a timing signal, controlling a local count value based on the timing signal, monitoring a synchronization signal of a system comprising the integrated circuit device, detecting a synchronization pulse in the synchronization signal, and aligning the local count value with an implied count value associated with the synchronization pulse in order to align the local count value with those of other integrated circuit devices of the system.
