Embodiments are directed to a system for synchronizing switching events. The system includes a controller, a clock generator communicatively coupled to the controller and a delay chain communicatively coupled to the controller. The delay chain is configured to perform a plurality of delay chain switching events in response to an input to the delay chain. The controller is configured to initiate a synchronization phase that includes enabling the clock generator to provide as an input to the delay chain a clock generator output at a synchronization frequency, wherein the clock generator output passing through the delay chain synchronizes the plurality of delay chain switching events to occur at the synchronization frequency resulting in a frequency of an output of the delay chain being synchronized to the synchronization frequency of the clock generator output.
