ABSTRACT:
Clock recovery apparatus having an early/late voter for deciding whether a current sampling point needs to be advanced or retarded, wherein the early/late voter passes and Up/Down signal to an interpolator for maintaining a clock signal; a frequency accumulator and rate multiplier30for generating further signals which are summed with those of the Up/Down signal of the early/late voter to provide an improved control signal to the phase interpolator. The accumulator is responsive to frequency changes in the input signal, and the interpolator acts on said Up/Down signals to adjust the clock signal by stepping it forward or backward according to control need, so that the sampling point can be advanced or retarded.
