US Patent Issued to Apple on Aug. 4 for "Phase-locked loop clock data recovery architecture" (Oregon Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 5 -- United States Patent no. 12,700,866, issued on Aug. 4, was assigned to Apple Inc. (Cupertino, Calif.).

"Phase-locked loop clock data recovery architecture" was invented by Kailash Chandrashekar (Portland, Ore.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A clock data recovery circuit that uses a phase-locked loop circuit is disclosed. The clock data recovery circuit includes a phase circuit that generates a modulation signal using a recovered clock signal and an input signal that encodes multiple data symbols. A phase-locked loop circuit generates the recovered clock signal using the modulation signal and generates a feedback signal whose frequency is a non-integer factor of the ...
