A circuit and a method for data transmission are provided. The signal generator receives at least one data signal from a transmitter, generates a pulse signal based on the clock signal, the data signal and a first predetermined rule, and transmits the pulse signal to the first signal synthesizer. The first signal synthesizer synthesizes the pulse signal and the clock signal to obtain a synthesized signal, and transmits the synthesized signal to the voltage comparator. The voltage comparator obtains the data signal based on the synthesized signal. According to the present disclosure, the pulse signal is generated based on the clock signal, the first predetermined rule, and the data signal received from the transmitter. The pulse signal and the clock signal are synthesized to obtain a synthesized signal, and the synthesized signal is transmitted to the receiver. The receiver obtains the data signal based on the synthesized signal.

A circuit and a method for eliminating a spurious signal are provided. The circuit includes a phase detector, a spurious estimation and regeneration device, and a phase shifter. After an actual clock signal containing a spurious signal is obtained, the contained spurious signal is estimated based on the reference clock signal that does not contain the spurious signal. Reverse adjustment is performed on the actual clock signal based on the estimated spurious signal to eliminate the spurious signal in the actual clock signal, ensuring eliminating the generated spurious signal by performing reverse adjustment, improving the signal transmission quality, thereby solving the problem of reduced signal quality due to that the spurious signal cannot be suppressed in generation according to the conventional technology.

A circuit for eliminating clock jitter based on reconfigurable multi-phase-locked loops includes multiple phase-locked loops, a data selector and a signal synthesizer. In a case of generating a clock signal with low jitter, output signals of two phase-locked loops are adjusted to be the same in frequency and phase, and output signals of other phase-locked loops are adjusted to be different from each other in frequency. The data selector selects output signals, and the signal synthesizer is enabled to superimpose and then average the first and second selected output signals, so as to obtain a clock signal with jitter eliminated. In a case of generating multiple clock signals with different frequencies, output signals of the multiple phase-locked loops are adjusted to be different from each other in frequency, to obtain multiple clock signals with different frequencies through the data selector without enabling the signal synthesizer.

A system and a method for hitless clock switching are provided. In the system, a sampling circuitry group samples a primary reference clock signal and a secondary reference clock signal to obtain first and second sampling information, respectively. A phase detector group obtains a phase difference between the primary and secondary reference clock signals with the first and second sampling information. A compensator group adds the phase difference to a phase of the secondary reference clock signal to obtain a backup reference clock signal. When the primary reference clock signal is abnormal or missing, the signal selector determines the backup reference clock signal as a target reference clock signal and sends it to a phase-locked loop. The phase-locked loop performs loop control on the target reference clock signal, thereby implementing hitless switching of reference clock signals.

A circuit and a method for automatically calibrating a phase interpolator are provided. Phase information of a reference clock signal and an output clock signal are processed by a phase detector to detect a phase difference of the two clock signals. A difference value between the phase difference and a standard phase difference corresponding to the digital control code is obtained, to generate compensation information. The compensation information is sent to the phase interpolator control unit for storage. When the phase interpolator operates normally, a phase interpolator control unit generates a control signal based on the compensation information, to regulate the phase value of the output clock signal of the phase interpolator.
