ABSTRACT:
An external digital phase locked loop for use in connection with a conventional serial communication controller is driven by a clock whose frequency is ten times the nominal data rate. Bit cells are divided into ten contiguous states. An adjustment window encompasses two states on either side of the nominal bit cell boundary. If a data transition is detected in either of two states later than the cell boundary, the bit cell timing is extended by one full state. On the other hand, if a data transition is detected in either of two states earlier than the nominal bit cell boundary, the bit cell timing is decreased by one full state.
