Abstract: A low frequency timing circuit is used to reestablish a timing signal in a high-frequency timing circuit after the high frequency timing circuit has lost and regained power. The timing of the low frequency circuit is measured against the timing of the high frequency circuit before the high frequency circuit has lost power. The low frequency circuit then is used to measure time after the high frequency circuit has lost power. Once the high frequency circuit has regained power, its timing signal is reestablished at an appropriate time based on a time measurement obtained from the low frequency circuit.

Abstract: A parameter detection system and method, detects the receipt of a valid communication from an entity, determines the data rate of the communication from the entity, and determines other parameters of the communication from the other entity. The parameter detection circuit configures a precision time generator to provide a timing signal at the appropriate rate to sample data associated with said valid communication, and configure a receiver/transmitter with the determined parameters of the communication.
