Abstract

In a data recovery circuit, multiple slicer outputs of incoming data for each data bit, e.g., one or more slicer outputs taken at or near the center of the eye and one or more slicer outputs taken at or near the leading edge and/or trailing edge of the eye, are processed in a manner that reduces the bit-error rate relative to the prior art. The data recovery circuit may be combined with state-of-the-art clock recovery circuits to yield improved clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits.
