Abstract: A frequency and phase detection circuit in an NRZ bit synchronous system by simultaneously retiming an NRZ input with an in-phase clock and an inverse-phase clock, respectively. A first frequency and phase difference is extracted by supplying the retimed NRZ with the in-phase clock and the delay-compensated NRZ input to an exclusive OR-gate. A second frequency and phase difference is extracted by supplying the retimed NRZ with the inverse-phase clock and the retimed NRZ with the in-phase clock to another exclusive OR-gate.
