Abstract

A bit resolution phase detector can be realized for a parallel elastic store by comparing a write bit clock and a read bit clock to determine when stuff bits are required; upon detection of phase alignment between the write and read clocks, the phase detector will output a signal which will enable the insertion of a data bit into the stuff opportunity bit and cause the write clock to lag the read clock by one bit period.
