    Abstract: A folding stage of the convertor has means for sensitizing, inhibiting and enabling signal paths through the convertor such that in a first operating condition, first and second inputs to the stage are switched through to corresponding inputs of a differential amplifier (3) of the respective stage. In a second operating condition a low auxiliary potential is applied to the first input and a high auxiliary potential is applied to the second input. In a third condition a high auxiliary potential is applied to the first input and a low auxiliary potential is applied to the second input. In a fourth condition both inputs are set to a potential between the high and low potentials. Means (13) are also provided to set the amplifier outputs to the same potential in dependence on signals on a control bus (18). Means are also provided feed a signal from a comparator or differential amplifier via an interrogation bus (19) to a control unit (20). Independent claims also cover a self calibration method.

    Abstract: The arrangement has a commutator (1) for oversampling the received signal (S) so that several sample values of a bit cell transmitted with the signal are distributed successively to several output ports and output as intermediate signals, two stages (5,6) for combining first and second groups of intermediate signals to form data and clock recovery signals and a phase regulator (7,8) for setting sampling phases for oversampling the received signal.

    Abstract: Method for sampling phase control for clock and data recovery of a data signal includes sampling a received data signal with a first sampling signal comprising equidistant sampling pulses, minimizing phase deviation between the first sampling signal and the phase of the received data signal to generate an adjusted second sampling signal, and sampling the received data signal with the adjusted second sampling signal to generate sampling data values. The method also includes integrating the sampling data values of the sampled data signal to form a summation value, and altering the phase of sampling pulses of the adjusted second sampling signal until the integrated summation value exceeds a threshold value that can be set.

    Abstract: A comparator generates an output signal for controlling switches (S1,S2) connected, so as to control driving state of the transistor (T1). The potential to be applied to the input terminal (KB) in the current-controlled mode differs from that in the voltage-controlled mode and from a potential at the input terminal (KA) in the current-controlled mode.
