Abstract
One embodiment relates to a data detection and event capture circuit. Data comparator logic receives a monitored data word from a parallel data bus and generates a plurality of pattern detected signals. Any pattern detection logic receives the plurality of pattern detected signals and generates a plurality of any pattern detected signals. Sequence detection logic receives the plurality of pattern detected signals and generates a plurality of sequence detected signals. Another embodiment relates to a method of data detection and event capture. Another embodiment relates to an integrated circuit having a first data detection and event capture circuit in a receiver circuit and a second data detection and event capture circuit in a transmitter circuit. Other embodiments and features are also disclosed.
