Methods and systems are provided for an improved phase detector utilizing analog-to-digital converter (ADC) components. In an embodiment, the method includes from an ADC having a sampling clock signal that determines sampling instants, obtaining a first comparison value between an analog signal and a first threshold voltage at a first sampling instant, and obtaining a second comparison value between the analog signal and a second threshold voltage at a second sampling instant. The method further includes, from a supplemental circuit, obtaining a third comparison value between the analog signal and a third threshold voltage at a third sampling instant between the first and second sampling instants. The method further includes processing the first, second, and third comparison values to determine a phase relationship between the analog signal and the sampling clock.
