  • Fast response system implementing a sampling clock for extracting stable clock information from a serial data stream with defined jitter characeristics and method therefor
    Patent number: 5825834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a clock recovery system which allows for stable clock information to be extracted from a serial data stream with defined jitter characteristics. The clock recover circuit is comprised of a flip flop which is used for receiving the serial data stream and for outputting stable clock information. A sampling clock circuit is coupled to the flip flop for sending a signal which reflects a center area of each bit period in the serial data stream when a transition occurs in the serial data stream.
