Abstract

A method and system for duty-cycled high speed clock and data recovery with forward error correction are provided. The system operates on a first digital signal comprising a first plurality of samples and a second digital signal comprising a second plurality of samples. The second plurality of samples may be a subset of the first plurality of samples, for example, if the first and second pluralities of samples are generated by one analog-to-digital converter. A clock and data recovery module is operable to produce a timing indication according the second digital signal. The second plurality of samples is sampled intermittently. The discontinuity between bursts of samples in the second signal corresponds to a duty cycle. A forward error correction module is operable to produce a digital error-corrected signal according to the first digital signal and the timing indication.
