  • Patent number: 10943524
    Abstract: A device for generating restoration data by descrambling scramble data includes a linear feedback shift register configured to receive a first clock including a plurality of edges and sequentially generate a plurality of seeds including first to N?1th seeds (where N is a natural number of 2 or greater) respectively corresponding to first to N?1th edges among the plurality of edges, a seed calculator configured to calculate an Nth seed corresponding to an Nth edge among the plurality of edges by using the first seed, and a descrambler configured to descramble the scramble data by using the plurality of seeds generated by the linear feedback shift register and the Nth seed calculated by the seed calculator. The linear feedback shift register is further configured to generate an N+1th seed by using the Nth seed.

  • Patent number: 10797683
    Abstract: A calibration circuit, including a duty cycle correction circuit and a phase correction circuit and associated calibrating method, are provided. Firstly, a first duty cycle adjusted clock and a second duty cycle adjusted clock are generated by the duty cycle correction circuit based on a first input clock and a second input clock, respectively. Then, a first delay adjusted clock and a second delay adjusted clock are generated by the phase correction circuit based on a phase of the first duty cycle adjusted clock, and a detection signal is generated. The detection signal is related to a duty cycle of the first input clock, a duty cycle of the second input clock, and a phase difference between the second delay adjusted clock and the first delay adjusted clock. Later, the duty cycle correction circuit and the phase correction circuit are controlled in response to the detection signal.

  • Patent number: 9071237
    Abstract: A digital duty cycle correction circuit includes a duty cycle controller and a digital duty control code generator. The duty cycle controller generates first and second output clock signals by compensating duty cycles of first and second input clock signals based on a digital duty control code. The digital duty control code generator generates the digital duty control code based on a frequency value obtained by converting duty cycle information of the first output clock signal and the second output clock signal.

  • Patent number: 8854550
    Abstract: A data processing device includes a clock converter, a data converter, and an error detector. The clock converter is configured to receive a first clock signal, convert the first clock signal into a second clock signal, and output the second clock signal. The data converter is configured to receive first data, convert the first data into second data using the second clock signal, and output the second data. The error detector is configured to check whether the first clock signal is in a first clock state or a second clock state upon the first data transitioning to a first data state, and output an enable signal to the clock converter upon determining that the first clock signal has transitioned to the first clock state from the second clock state.
