Abstract
A de-serialization circuit includes a clock generation circuit, a first and a second latch circuit. The clock generation circuit is configured to generate a set of phase clock signals based on a first clock signal and a control signal. Each phase clock signal of the set of phase clock signals being offset from adjacent phase clock signals of the set of phase clock signals by a phase value. The first latch circuit is configured to generate a first set of data signals based on the set of phase clock signals and an input data signal. The second latch circuit is configured to generate a second set of data signals based on a first phase clock signal of the set of phase clock signals and the first set of data signals. Each signal of the second set of data signals being aligned with each other, wherein the first clock signal is non-continuous.
