Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system for clock synthesis or data timing recovery. No analog continuous time oscillator is required, all the building blocks of a Frequency Locked Loop/Phase Locked Loop belonging in the digital discrete time domain. From a system-level perspective, the system is characterized by its strong non-linear behavior due to the intrinsic nature of some building blocks. This inherent non-linearity is responsible for some unusual, attractive property of the complete system. The system is able to multiply the input frequency clock by an arbitrarily large factor, ensuring in any case the convergence of the algorithm in two reference clock cycles. |
