18 years agoWhere can I find clock mux?
Hi, everyone. In my project, 2M,4M,8M and 16M bitstreams will be transived to the reciver. For the reciver, it must know the clock which the bitstream contains. The cyclones have no DPA or CDR, so...

18 years agoThanks for clarifying. This the case of unknown clock phase, as it could be handled by DPA hardware. It needs a train pattern and a synchronisation phase or a protocol with unique synchronisation pattern, as HDLC and a clock phase synchronisation at the receiver. Thus I would empasize my suggestion of oversampling the input data and create a "software DPA". I can hardly imgagine how the data should be recovered otherwise. This is functionally the same as Rysc suggested, but with additional oversampling.
