Abstract

The invention involves a clock pulse synchronization process as well as a device to be used in the synchronization of clock pulses, including a first delay apparatus with variably controllable delay period, in which a clock pulse or a signal derived from it, has a variably controllable delay period imposed on it and is then emitted as a delayed signal. In addition to the first delay apparatus with variably controllable delay period, a second delay apparatus with variably controllable delay period is provided.
