Abstract

A process of clock recovery during the sampling of computer-type signals, wherein the sampling clock is generated from a phase locked loop or PLL which multiplies a given frequency by an integer number, includes gauging the position of the edges of the computer-type signals with respect to the sampling clock with the aid of an analog ramp triggered by the rising edges of the said signals in such a way as to obtain a first position-dependent value, carrying out a sampling clock phase correction and then carrying out a sampling clock frequency correction by using a processor.
