Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to synchronize data bus access. An example system includes a first computing device to transmit a first synchronization pulse to second computing devices using a first bus, the first synchronization pulse to synchronize first timers of the second computing devices to trigger a data schedule including one or more data cycles, and transmit a second synchronization pulse to the second computing devices using the first bus, the second synchronization pulse to synchronize ones of the first timers and slot counters of the second computing devices to trigger the one or more data cycles. The example system further includes the second computing devices to transmit data to the first computing device using a second bus during the one or more data cycles, where each of the one or more data cycles is assigned to a corresponding one of the second computing devices.
