Abstract
Circuits and methods for performing a clock and data recovery are disclosed. In one example, a clock and data recovery circuit is disclosed. The circuit includes a third order digital filter, e.g. a finite state machine (FSM) that includes three accumulators connected in series. Among the three accumulators, a first accumulator receives an input phase code representing a phase timing difference between a data signal and a clock signal at each FSM cycle and accumulates input phase codes for different FSM cycles to generate a first order phase code at each FSM cycle; a second accumulator accumulates the input phase codes and first order phase codes for different FSM cycles to generate a second order phase code at each FSM cycle; and a third accumulator accumulates the input phase codes and second order phase codes for different FSM cycles to generate a third order phase code at each FSM cycle.
