A peak phase error circuit including phase difference logic and delay and register logic. The phase difference logic provides a pulse difference signal including at least one difference pulse indicative of a timing difference between selected edges of a pair of clock signals. The delay and register logic receives the pulse difference signal and provides a peak phase error value representing peak phase error between the clock signals. The delay and register logic may include a delay line with multiple delay cells and taps coupled in series in which each tap provides an output state of a delay cell. The register logic registers a state of each tap to provide delay bits in response to each trailing edge of the difference pulses. Each delay bit remains set until reset so that the longest pulse difference signal is registered to provide the peak phase error.
