Abstract:
1. A method for generating a set of clock signals in a system, the set of clock signals comprising a set of sampling clock signals associated with a corresponding plurality of input signals and a receive clock signal, the system comprising a set of subsystems, each of the subsystems comprising an analog section, each of the analog sections operating in accordance with a corresponding one of the sampling clock signals, each of the subsystems comprising a digital section, each of the digital sections operating in accordance with the receive clock signal, the method comprising the operations of: (a) receiving a plurality of transmitted signals; (b) generating phase control signals associated with each of the plurality of transmitted signals; (c) generating a receive phase control signal for the receive clock signal in accordance with at least one of the phase control signals; (d) generating the sampling clock signals in accordance with the corresponding phase control signals; and (e) generating the receive clock signal in accordance with the receive phase control signal.
