Abstract
The methods and apparatus disclosed herein provide an operative system for increasing the resolution of serial DRUs based on interleaved free running oversamplers. In particular, this system uses incoming data to measure and to compensate the skew between two or more free running oversamplers (e.g., SerDes), without the need for any hardware design requirement relating to the precision of the relative skew of the oversamplers.
