Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: an input arrangement for accepting data input to be transmitted; an arrangement for detecting and decoding transitions in the data input; said arrangement for detecting and decoding being adapted to ascertain data transition history in the data input; and an arrangement for applying phase pre-distortion to at least a portion of the data input based on the ascertained data transition history; wherein the phase pre-distortion neutralizes data dependent jitter of the data input; wherein the input data comprises a serial data stream; wherein said input arrangement further comprises a series of single data bit delay elements for successively delaying the serial data stream of the input data; and wherein said detecting and decoding arrangement further comprises a plurality of XOR gates for comparing portions of the serial data stream at different sampling positions among said series of single data bit delay elements.
