Abstract
In general, one embodiment of the invention involves an apparatus that comprises a fast acquisition logic coupled to an oversampler. The fast acquisition logic is configured to detect whether any of a plurality of data samples produced by the oversampler is inaccurate, and if so, to cause data to be recovered from a new data sample different from the data sample previously being used for data recovery. The new data sample would be multiple sampling states away from the previous data sample.
