Abstract

In one embodiment, a receiver may receive a signal from a transmitter. The receiver may include a first sampler that may sample the signal when the value of the signal is zero. The receiver may further include a second sampler that may sample the signal halfway between a time when the first sampler samples the signal and the next time when the first sampler samples the signal to produce a set of sampled values. The receiver may be further operable to determine that a sampled value in the set of sampled values is a logic 1 if the sampled value is greater than the value of a reference voltage and that the sampled value is a logic 0 if the sampled value is less than the value of the reference voltage.
