Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing clock extraction are provided. The method includes: performing edge analysis on a Training Sequence Equalization (TSEQ) pattern carried by a set of received signals that are received from a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port of an electronic device, to dynamically generate a plurality of analysis results; and performing frequency calibration on a frequency of an output clock of a Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCO) according to a frequency that different types of analysis results within the plurality of analysis results alternatively occur, to utilize the output clock as a reference clock after completing the frequency calibration. More particularly, the method further includes: generating a set of de-multiplexed signals respectively corresponding to a plurality of bits, to perform the edge analysis by comparing respective voltage levels of de-multiplexed signals corresponding to every two adjacent bits of the plurality of bits within the set of de-multiplexed signals.
