ABSTRACT:
A multi-device system having a daisy chain system bus structure and related method of operation are disclosed. A reference signal having a defined oscillation period is communicated around the daisy chain bus structure. Total signal transmission time around the daisy chain bus structure as well as signal transmission time to each one of a plurality of client devices connected to a host device by the daisy chain bus structure may be readily determined.
