Abstract: Producing C5 olefins from steam cracker C5 feeds may include reacting a mixed hydrocarbon stream comprising cyclopentadiene, C5 olefins, and C6+ hydrocarbons in a dimerization reactor where cyclopentadiene is dimerized to dicyclopentadiene. The dimerization reactor effluent may be separated into a fraction comprising the C6+ hydrocarbons and dicyclopentadiene and a second fraction comprising C5 olefins and C5 dienes. The second fraction, a saturated hydrocarbon diluent stream, and hydrogen may be fed to a catalytic distillation reactor system for concurrently separating linear C5 olefins from saturated hydrocarbon diluent, cyclic C5 olefins, and C5 dienes contained in the second fraction and selectively hydrogenating C5 dienes. An overhead distillate including the linear C5 olefins and a bottoms product including cyclic C5 olefins are recovered from the catalytic distillation reactor system.

Abstract: A clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit includes a phase detector, a frequency accumulator, and a sequencer circuit. The phase detector generates a phase detect result signal in response to phase detection of a plurality of samples, which are generated by sampling a first data signal from a receiver using a sampling clock. The frequency accumulator accumulates, using a frequency register, frequency offset information from the phase detect result signal to generate an accumulated total. The frequency offset information is associated with a frequency difference between a first reference clock of the receiver and a second reference clock associated with the first data signal. The accumulated total is stored in the frequency register and provided from the frequency register for updating the sampling clock. The sequencer circuit is configured to perform a reset operation to reset the accumulated total in the frequency register based on a sequence of sequence elements.
