Abstract

A method is described that includes sampling data at a plurality of different relative phase positions between a clock signal and a data signal. The method also includes separately adjusting both the data signal's phase position and the clock signal's phase position to change the relative phase positions between the clock signal and the data signal at which data is sampled. Circuitry capable of performing the method is also described.
