Synchronous transmission method, and chip and serial communication system applying the same

Abstract

A method of synchronous transmission for a serial communication system having a master device and a plurality of slave devices coupled in series, can include: in a synchronous control interval of a control period, controlling an output signal of a corresponding slave according to an input signal of the corresponding slave; in a data control interval of the control period, controlling the output signal of the corresponding slave according to a first signal, such that a period of the output signal is synchronized with a period of the input signal; and where a start moment of a first period of the first signal is delayed by a first duration compared to a start moment of a first period of the input signal.
