Abstract:
In an embodiment, a clock synchronizing circuit includes: a phase comparator including a first circuit having a first input configured to receive a data signal; and a second circuit. The first circuit is configured to detect edges of the data signal. The second circuit includes a clock generator configured to generate a clock signal with adjustable frequency, where the phase comparator is configured to compare, after detecting an edge of the data signal, an edge of the data signal with an edge of the clock signal, and where the second circuit is configured to modify a frequency of the clock signal as a function of an output signal of the phase comparator.
