Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating an accurate clock generator timing source, comprising minimal jitter, excellent resolution, and an extended calibration range, for use, for example, in a system requiring accurate low power operation. In particular, a clock generation system is adapted to receive a generated clock input, a reference clock input, and an adjustment parameter comprising a sign bit and p data bits. The calibration logic system is further adapted to output and modify a calibrated clock, using distributed pulse modification. The adjustment parameter may be automatically generated.

Abstract: Transmit-side active signal management circuitry applies one or more active signal management processes to a digital signal at a transmit side of an interconnect. At the receive side of the interconnect, receive-side active signal management circuitry applies one or more corresponding active signal management processes, as appropriate, to the received digital signal to recover the information represented by the original digital signal. The interconnect can include a cable used to transmit the signals between a source device and a destination device, whereby one or both of the transmit-side active signal management circuitry and the receive-side active signal management circuitry is implemented at a corresponding cable receptacle of the cable. Alternately, one or both of the transmit-side active signal management circuitry and the receive-side active signal management circuitry can be implemented at a cable adaptor, thereby permitting the use of a passive cable interconnect to transmit the signal.
