//! Control for maintaining time sync between the controller and peripherals

/// PID controller for correcting peripheral cycle timing
/// with simple saturation to prevent excessive integral windup.
///
/// Because the true error is known to be almost exactly linear
/// after the initial discrepancy is resolved, the windup saturation
/// limit can be chosen to be compatible with the peripheral clock error
/// without driving excessive overshoot.
