A system includes a sampler, a receiver phase-locked loop circuit configured to provide one or more input clock signals, and a phase interpolation circuit coupled to the receiver phase-locked loop circuit and the sampler. The phase interpolation circuit further includes a first phase interpolator configured to generate a first recovered clock signal based on the one or more input clock signals and a first code, and a second phase interpolator configured to generate a second recovered clock signal based on the one or more input clock signals and a second code, wherein the second code has an interpolation code offset from the first code, wherein the interpolation code offset corresponds to a phase shift in the second recovered clock signal relative to the first recovered clock signal, wherein the outputs of the first phase interpolator and second phase interpolator are configured to be merged.
