Abstract:
Circuitry for decoding data from a pulsed signal received on a single line, the circuitry comprising receiving means for receiving a first edge and a second edge on the single line, the first and second edges being separated by a time period, the time period representing said data; decode circuitry comprising determining means arranged to determine a value of the time period and decoding means arranged to decode said data based on said determined value of the time period; a memory arranged to store a reference value; and calibration means for calibrating said decode circuitry based on a comparison between said determined value of the time period and said reference value, wherein the determining means comprises a plurality of sampling units for sampling said pulsed signal at different times, and selection means for selecting the output of one of said sampling units to decoded.
