Abstract: A bus interface and a receiver in the bus interface receive signals from a computer bus, such as a SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) bus, and deskew and synchronize the signals into valid data and control signals. The signals are aligned and then a portion of the signals is offset to ensure that the other signals have sufficient time to stabilize before being latched. The alignment is performed by adding and subtracting delay units to and from the signals. The offset is determined by a self-calibration logic that uses the same type of delay units.
