Abstract
An apparatus comprising: a signal detection circuit determine a count reached by a counter between successive detected edge signals and to provide an indication of whether successive detected edge signals are separated from each other by at least a prescribed time interval; a clock circuit that produces clock signal pulses in response to a provided indication of an occurrence of a succession of detected edge signals each separated from a previous edge signal of the succession by at least the prescribed time interval; phase matching circuitry configured to align the produced clock signal pulses with detected edge signals; and a pattern matching circuit that that samples a sequence of detected edge signals aligned with the produced clock signal pulses to detect a data packet.
