Abstract

A phase-lock loop is disclosed for synchronizing an oscillator signal with a train of input signal pulses, some of which may be missing. The phase-lock loop is of particular use in a decoder for decoding digitally encoded data employing a self-clocking coding scheme. The decoder generates a clock from the input signal stream for use in the decoding process.
