Abstract

A clock recovery circuit is coupled to an elastic storage circuit such as a FIFO circuit. More specifically, a first input of the elastic storage circuit is electrically connected to an output of the clock recovery circuit. A second input for accepts a data signal representing an input data stream from a communications medium. A third input accepts a local clock signal. The resultant circuit may be used in receiver's for communications systems to help alleviate the problems of frequency mismatch and jitter.
