Abstract
The present invention relates to a clock recovery circuit for generation of a recovered clock signal from a received data stream using a weighted combination of phase component signals. The clock recovery circuit comprises: a detector to detect the phase of a received data stream; a selector comprising a differential generator arranged to generate at least two related signals in dependence on the detected phase; and a clock signal generator to receive the at least two related signals and select related proportions of two or more of a plurality of phase component signals for combination, thereby to generate a recovered clock signal.
