A digital phase lock loop and system for data extraction and clock recovery of Ethernet data reduces power consumption, area, and noise sensitivity. In one aspect, a digital phase lock loop (PLL) includes a data extraction and end of transmission delimiter (ETD) circuit, an edge detection comparator coupled to the data extraction and ETD circuit, an up/down counter coupled to the edge detection comparator, and a phase adjustment oscillator coupled to the counter and to the data extraction and ETD circuit for producing phase adjustments in a reference clock signal in accordance with shifts in the frequency of the data. In a system aspect of the present invention, the system receives the data in a digital PLL circuit, and adjusts a phase of a reference clock and a sample clock to track transitions in the data through the digital PLL.
