Abstract

A clock data recovery circuit includes an inphase-quadrature (I-Q) merged phase interpolator circuit configured to generate a first clock pair and a second clock pair from a plurality of reference clock signals, the plurality of reference clock signals having different phases, the first clock pair comprising an I clock signal and an inverted I clock signal, and the second clock pair comprising a Q clock signal and an inverted Q clock signal, a sampler circuit configured to sample input data based on the first clock pair and the second clock pair, and a control circuit configured to control phases of the first clock pair and the second clock pair, the controlling including providing a control signal to the I-Q merged phase interpolator circuit based on a sampling result of the sampler circuit, the I-Q merged phase interpolator circuit is configured to share analog inputs based on the control signal.
