ABSTRACT:
A method and digital circuit for decoding and recovering a data clock from an incoming stream of Coded Marked Inversion (CMI) encoded data. The CMI encoded data is applied to a shift register where the data is sampled at a rate greater than the incoming transfer rate thus providing multiple samples per data period. The multiple samples having a high logical value occuring during the first half of a data period are counted and a represented value is outputted. The multiple samples having a high logical value occurring during the second half of the data period are also counted and a second represented value is outputted. The two represented values are compared and a single CMI-decoded data bit is determined. The multiple samples are also compared to detect a high-to-low transition which, according to the CMI format, constitutes a data boundary. First and second free-running counters are provided, whose most significant output bits provide an initial clock signal and a recovered data clock, respectively. Upon each boundary detection occurring within a predetermined region, the first free-running counter is reset to an initial count and thereby resynchronized with the incoming stream of data. The initial and terminal counts of the second counter are adjusted by a phase controller to keep the recovered data clock phase-locked to the initial clock signal.
