  • Patent number: 7064590
    Abstract: It is difficult to optimize the timing of the forward and reverse direction for high frequency bi-directional digital signals. Therefore, a digital system is provided that improves the adjustability of the timing by the emission of an additional clock pulse, together with the output clock pulse for the receiver and the feedback clock pulse for the PLL. The additional clock pulse is re-circulated using a delay line and is used to set the clock pulse of the reverse direction signals.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6956424
    Abstract: The performance of digital signals depends to a great extent on the frequency. However, the higher the frequency, the shorter the remaining time, in which digital signals can be reliably received by a receiver from a driver via a printed conductor. The run time of the clock pulse and signals must be optimized in such a way that no timing losses occur at any location, even in the extreme environmental conditions. The invention improves the timing and minimizes external influences by coupling the output signals to an internal PLL clock pulse.
