Abstract
An integrated circuit device includes a data input configured to receive a data signal and a clock input configured to receive a clock signal associated with the data signal. The device further includes a sample timing circuit coupled to the clock input and the data input and configured to generate a statistical measure of timing of the data signal and to identify a sample timing for the data signal based on the generated statistical measure. The sample timing circuit may be configured to generate samples of the data signal at a rate higher than a rate of the clock signal, and to generate the statistical measure of timing of the data signal from the data signal samples.
