Abstract

A universal serial bus (USB) device for receiving data from a link partner is provided. An electrical physical unit receives a series of data from the link partner via a cable and generates a symbol string corresponding to the series of data, wherein the symbol string includes a plurality of symbols. A correction unit receives the symbol string, determines whether each symbol of the received symbol string is a first type symbol and counts a quantity of the received first type symbol, wherein when the counted quantity is odd and a next received symbol is a second type symbol, the next received symbol is replaced with the first type symbol by the correction unit.
