Abstract
A parallel channel timing recovery circuit. The parallel timing recovery circuit comprises multiple prefilters receiving parallel channel outputs and providing prefilter outputs. Multiple sampling filters receive the prefilter outputs and provide multiple discrete time signal samples. A self-timing circuit has multiple inputs receiving the multiple discrete time signal samples. The self-timing circuit provides a sampling control output to the sampling filters. The sampling control output is based on a composite of the multiple discrete time signal samples. Each of the sampling filters generates a discrete time signal sample based on the sampling control output and the prefilter outputs.
