Abstract

A digital signal error detection circuit and method for identifying interruptions in respective occurrences of opposing signal states of an equalized digital data signal. Signal level status signals are monitored during a specified monitoring time period to determine whether the data signal being monitored contains at least one positive data pulse and at least one negative data pulse. If this condition is not met, then an error signal is generated for use in correcting the equalization of the original data signal.
