Abstract: A host controller with suppressed data jitter is shown, which uses a logical physical layer (LPHY) to provide groups of low-speed data, uses a clock-domain-crossing transmitter (TXCDC) to transmit the groups of the low-speed data to the corresponding electrical physical layers (EPHYs), uses the EPHYs to convert the groups of the low-speed data to high-speed data and transmit the high-speed data to the corresponding external devices, and further has a multiplexer. Each EPHY corresponds to one clock signal and operates accordingly. The multiplexer receives the clock signals of the EPHYs to output a common clock signal for the LPHY to provide the groups of low-speed data and for the TXCDC to retrieve the groups of low-speed data. With respect to each of the external devices, the TXCDC uses the clock signal corresponding to the corresponding EPHY to output the corresponding group of low-speed data to the corresponding EPHY.

When a cache memory of a central processing unit (CPU) at the host side has not started up, the first and second buffer sets operate in a cache memory mode to respond to read requests that the CPU repeatedly issues for data of specific addresses of the storage device. When the cache memory has started up, the first buffer set and the second buffer set operate in a ping-pong buffer mode to respond to read requests that the CPU issues for data of sequential addresses of the storage device.

Abstract: A peripheral interface circuit at host side and an electronic system using the same is disclosed. The peripheral interface circuit has a bus clock signal generator and a data register. The bus clock signal generator outputs a bus clock signal based on a host clock signal to be conveyed to a peripheral device via an interface bus as a reference for the peripheral device to output data. The data register receives the data output from the peripheral device and retrieved at the host side in accordance with the host clock signal. The bus clock signal generator adjusts the bus clock signal based on how the host clock signal is phase-asynchronous to the data output from the peripheral device and retrieved at the host side in accordance with the host clock signal.
