A device having a sample-rate converter that may be programmed to generate samples at different rates is synchronized to an external synchronization pulse by temporarily changing the sample rate to a temporary sample rate and then changing the sample rate back to the original sample rate. Synchronization in a reduced amount of time is achieved by determining the interval between the synchronization pulse and one of the output samples and determining a processing time of the device for generating the output samples at a new rate. The system calculates a temporary sample rate based on these calculations that tends to reduce an amount of time to achieve synchronization.
A method for synchronizing output samples of a device, including a programmable decimator, to a synchronization pulse, the method comprising:
An apparatus for synchronizing output samples of a device having a programmable decimator to a synchronization pulse, the apparatus comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium including program instructions that are configured to cause a processing element to synchronize output samples of a device to a synchronization pulse, the device including a programmable decimator, the program instructions being configured to cause the processing element to:
An apparatus for synchronizing output samples of a device, including a programmable decimator, to a synchronization pulse, the apparatus comprising:
