Patent Images
1. A signal processing device to utilize multiple channel phase detection, the device comprising:
- a first phase detector for a first Phase Locked Loop (PLL) of a first channel, said first phase detector to generate phase error information from an input of said first channel; and
a second phase detector of a second PLL of a second channel, said second phase detector to generate phase error information from an input of said second channel;
wherein, both said first PLL and said second PLL are to receive phase error information from both said first phase detector and said second phase detector.

Abstract
A signal processing device to utilize multiple channel phase detection includes a first phase detector for a first Phase Locked Loop (PLL) of a first channel, the first phase detector to generate phase error information from an input of the first channel. The device also includes a second phase detector of a second PLL of a second channel, the second phase detector to generate phase error information from an input of the second channel. Both the first PLL and the second PLL are to receive phase error information from both the first phase detector and the second phase detector.
