    Abstract: A network device including frequency generation circuitry configured to generate a clock signal, a phase-locked loop configured to generate a local clock based on the clock signal, a plurality of receivers configured to receive respective data streams from respective remote clock sources, each receiver of the plurality of receivers being configured to recover a remote clock from a respective data stream, and a controller configured to identify the remote clock recovered by one of the plurality of receivers as a master clock, find a clock differential between the identified remote clock and the local clock, provide a control signal to the frequency generation circuitry responsively to the clock differential, which causes the frequency generation circuit to adjust the clock signal so as to iteratively reduce an absolute value of the clock differential.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device includes frequency generation circuitry configured to generate a clock signal, a phase-locked loop (PLL) configured to generate a local clock based on the clock signal, a receiver configured to receive a data stream from a remote clock source and recover a remote clock from the data stream, and a controller configured to find a clock differential between the local clock and the remote clock identified as a master dock, and provide a control signal to the frequency generation circuitry responsively to the clock differential, which causes the frequency generation circuitry to adjust the clock signal so as to iteratively reduce an absolute value of the clock differential between the local clock and the remote clock identified as the master clock so that the local clock generated by the PLL is synchronized with the master clock.

    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for channel estimation in a receiver of a communication system. An example method includes receiving, via a receiver of a communication system, an input signal. The example method further includes using a first event indicator embedded in an analog circuit of the receiver to slice the input signal to generate a sliced input signal and applying an offset to the input signal to generate an offsetted signal. The example method further includes using a second event indicator embedded in the analog circuit to slice the offsetted signal to generate a sliced offsetted signal. The example method further includes applying a first predefined delay to the sliced input signal and applying a second predefined delay to the sliced offsetted signal. The example method further includes generating a conditional ones signal based on the sliced input signal and the sliced offsetted signal and using the conditional ones signal to calibrate an equalizer embedded in the receiver.
