摘要:
A method and system for cycle slip framing is disclosed. The method includes receiving an asynchronous signal and generating a synchronous pulse after receiving the asynchronous signal. The method further provides that the synchronous pulse be used to affect a bit slip that results in the moving of a character frame in the recovered data of a deserializer. According to one embodiment of the invention, the moving of the character frame is prompted by a single control signal of a clock divider circuit which causes the removal of a single clock cycle of a clock signal supplied to said deserializer.

A system and method are provided for synchronizing a frame of related bits output from a deserializer to the related bits serially fed to the deserializer. Synchronization is achieved by overcoming a slip bit problem by selectively increasing the frame clock cycle during times in which the slip bit occurs. The deserializer is controlled by a clock generator that can include a counter which generates the frame clock. The counter can be asynchronously or synchronously reset, without any glitches occurring within the deserializer and, thus, avoiding any invalid bits output from the deserializer. The asynchronous reset forces the counter to a deterministic state, and the synchronous reset sets the counter to a valid state. In each instance, however, resets do not impart glitches to the deserializer and the deserializer output frame is maintained synchronous to related bits serially fed to the deserializer.

A system and method are provided for built-in-self test of any bits that have slipped from their appropriate positions within a frame character clock cycle. If a bit has slipped, then the built-in-self test mechanism can also implement either a clock generation stretch operation or a barrel shift operation to readjust the frame boundary output from a receiver with a 1-to-N deserializer. A pseudo-random bit sequence can be generated having the same logic value in both the receiver and transmitter, where the output of the deserializer which receives the transmitted bits is compared bit-by-bit with the receiver-generated bits as part of the built-in-self test mechanism. If a bit is determined to have been slipped, then error correction occurs with aliasing and phase jitter in mind.

A parallel data interface and method is provided herein, which adjusts a timing relationship of a clock signal to not only minimize clock skew, but to also compensate for noise components that may affect one or more paths of a parallel data bus. In some embodiments, the parallel data interface includes a first phase generator coupled to generate a first plurality of time delay pulses, and a first phase selector adapted to select one of the first plurality of time delay pulses to adjust the timing of a clock signal to sample each and every one of the plurality of data signals between minimum setup and hold time thresholds. In some embodiments, the parallel data interface includes a second phase generator coupled to generate a second plurality of time delay pulses, and a second phase selector adapted to select one of the second plurality of time delay pulses to adjust the timing of the clock signal to output the plurality of data signals from the data interface at least an amount of time (i.e., an access time) after the adjusted clock transition is output from the data interface.
