Abstract
Methods and systems are described for obtaining a sequence of data decisions and an error signal generated by one or more samplers operating on a received input signal according to a sampling clock, applying the sequence of data decisions and the error signal to each logic branch of a set of logic branches, and responsively selecting a logic branch from the set of logic branches, the logic branch selected responsive to (i) a detection of a transitional data pattern in the sequence of data decisions and (ii) the error signal, the selected logic branch generating an output current, and providing the output current to a local oscillator controller, the output current sourcing and sinking current to a capacitor through a resistive element to adjust an input voltage of a proportional control circuit relative to a voltage on the capacitor connected to the resistive element.
