  • Patent number: 5566212
    Abstract: A phase-locked loop circuit recovering original clock information and original stream of binary data both from Manchester-coded data is disclosed. The phase-locked loop circuit comprises first, second, and third exclusive-OR circuits each with two inputs and an output. The phase-locked loop circuit further comprises a controlled oscillator that generates two local clock signals that are phase shifted from each other, preferably by an amount of 90.degree., with the first being at 0.degree. phase shift. The 0.degree. clock signal is applied to one input of the first exclusive-OR circuit having Manchester-coded data at its other input. The 90.degree. phase shifted clock is applied to one input of the second exclusive-OR circuit having Manchester-coded data at its other input. The output of each of the first and second exclusive-OR circuits, after passing through associated circuitry, is applied to the third exclusive-OR circuit.
