Abstract

A synchronization method and apparatus for detecting and synchronizing asynchronous signal data pulses. The synchronization system passes individual data pulses through two parallel synchronization sub-circuits, alternating synchronization sub-circuits for each succeeding pulse, and combines the output of the parallel synchronization sub-circuits to create a single synchronous signal.
