US Patent 11070351 Controller and method for data communication

The controller includes a first equalizer, a first detector, a second detector, a multiplexer, a data clock generator, and a second equalizer. The first equalizer is configured to receive and equalize the input data. The first detector is configured to detect optimum phase of the input data. The optimum phase of the input data represents the input data peak. The second detector is configured to generate an envelope data according to the input data and detect peak of envelop with respect to sampling phase. The data clock generator is configured to generate the recovered data clock. The second equalizer is configured to generate the recovered data. The multiplexer is configured to generate an offset value according to the input data peak and the envelope data peak. The offset value represents the recovered data clock having an optimum sampling frequency and an optimum sampling phase.
