    Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to an ultrasound device having a first analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to operate with a first ADC clock signal having a first timing delay and a second ADC configured to operate with a second ADC clock signal having a second timing delay. The first timing delay and the second timing delay may be different. The ultrasound device may further include delay control circuitry configured to control direct digital synthesis (DDS) circuitry to implement a first delay in ultrasound data from the first ADC and a second delay in ultrasound data from the second ADC. The first delay may correct for the first timing delay and the second delay may correct for the second timing delay.
