Abstract

In accordance with an embodiment, a method includes generating a clock signal; generating a switching signal based on the clock signal; generating a synchronization signal having an edge transition corresponding to a predetermined phase of the switching signal; transmitting the synchronization signal to a master controller; receiving a frequency adjustment command from the master controller based on the transmitted synchronization signal; and adjusting a frequency of the clock signal based on the frequency adjustment command.
