ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for retiming and decoding Manchester-encoded data o produce a locally-formatted waveform, and for encoding a locally-formatted waveform in a Manchester-encoded format. The apparatus includes an all-digital retimer which retimes the Manchester-encoded waveform while monitoring the waveform to detect the presence of a data frame therein. The retimer detects the data frame by identifying a synch bit which initiates a frame and detecting when a maximum intra-frame signaling distance has been exceeded. A decoder receives the retimed waveform, together with an envelope signal defining the data frame and decodes the retimed waveform into a locally-coded format. The encoder receives a locally-formatted signal together with a signal defining a data frame and encodes the locally-formatted signal into a framed Manchester-encoded signal.
