Some examples described herein provide an integrated circuit comprising an auxiliary clock and data recovery (CDR) circuitry. The CDR circuitry is configured to oversample an incoming data signal and generate a locked clock signal. The auxiliary CDR circuitry may comprise a phase-locked loop (PLL) configured to receive the incoming data signal and generate the locked clock signal. The PLL may comprise a phase detector (PD) configured to receive the incoming data signal and capture a number of samples of the incoming data signal in response to a number of adjacent clock signals and minimum data transition thresholds implemented by an intersymbol interference (ISI) filter, the minimum data transition thresholds identifying minimum data transitions in the incoming data signal.
