Abstract
A clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit having a phase locked module and a frequency locked module is provided. A phase detector of the phase locked module compares a phase of an input data stream with a phase of a data-recovery clock to output an adjusting signal. The frequency locked module performs a first-order integration process and a second-order integration process on the adjusting signal to generate a first integration error and a frequency control signal. The phase locked module generates a phase control signal according to the first integration error and the adjusting signal. An oscillation circuit of the frequency locked module generates at least one reference clock according to the frequency control signal. A phase converter of the phase locked module outputs the data-recovery clock to the phase detector according to the phase control signal and the reference clock.
