    Abstract: The present invention is directed to electrical circuits. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide a charge pump, which can be utilized as a part of a clock data recovery device. Early and late signals are used as differential switching voltage signals in the charge pump. The first switch and a second switch are used for controlling the direction of the current flowing into the loop filter. Input differential voltages to the switches are being generated with an opamp negative feedback loop. The output voltage of the first switch and the second switch is used in conjunction with a resistor to generate a charge pump current. There are other embodiments as well.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to data communication. More specifically, an embodiment of the present invention provides a technique for detecting loss of signal. An incoming data stream is sampled and a recovered clock signal is generated accordingly. An output clock signal of a higher frequency than the recovered clock signal is generated by a transmission PLL. The frequency of the recovered clock signal is compared to a divided frequency of the output clock signal. If a difference between the recovered clock signal and the output clock signal is greater than a threshold, a loss of signal indication is provided. There are other embodiments as well.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for duty cycle correction of clock signals. An input clock signal passes through a pair of output transistors, which provides an output clock signal based on the input clock signal. A duty cycle sensor generates a first correction signal based on the output clock signal. The first correction signal is at least partially opposite of the output clock signal. A duty cycle corrector generates a second correction signal based on the first correction signal. The duty cycle corrector includes two or more transistors for generating the second correction signal. The second correction signal is applied to the output clock signal. There are other embodiments as well.
