Embodiments of methods and systems for BMC decoding are described. In an embodiment, a method for BMC decoding involves performing a unit interval estimation of a BMC encoded bit stream, locating a bit boundary of the BMC encoded bit stream based on the unit interval estimation and a known sequence in a preamble of the BMC encoded bit stream, and measuring a time duration across multiple bit transitions from the bit boundary and decoding the BMC encoded bit stream based on the time duration and the unit interval estimation.

Method and system for bi-phase mark coding (BMC) decoding

A ramp output control device includes a driver configured to receive at least two inputs from a microcontroller. The driver includes a time duration register configured to store a current clock count until a preset time duration is reached. The driver also includes a ramp output register configured to store a current output value at an output of the device. The driver also includes a calculation block configured to determine whether to increase the current output value at the output based on the at least two inputs.
