Abstract

In one example implementation, the present disclosure provides a system that includes circuitry and one or more electronic components for synchronizing data transfer from a core to a physical interface. One example can involve an apparatus for interfacing a digital core with at least one physical interface that includes a macro configured on the digital core, the macro having at least one data output, a first data input, a reset input and a sync reset output, the macro to be clocked by a first clock having a first clock rate. The first clock can be configured to clock in data from the digital core on the first data input; clock in a reset signal from the digital core on the reset input, wherein a synchronized reset signal is output on the sync reset output. The apparatus can also include physical interface circuitry and a reset sampling input.
