US Patent 10367636 Phase calibration of clock signals

A receiver with clock phase calibration is disclosed. A first sampling circuit generates first digital data based on an input signal, a sampling phase of the first sampling circuit controlled by a first clock signal. A second sampling circuit generates second digital data based on the input signal, a sampling phase of the second sampling circuit controlled by a second clock signal. Circuitry within the receiver calibrates the clocks in different stages. During a first calibration stage, a phase of the second clock signal is adjusted while the first digital data is selected for generating the output data. During a second calibration stage, a phase of the first clock signal is adjusted while the first digital data is selected for the output data path.
