承上所述,第一取样电路122用来依据时脉信号CLK取样第一信号D1,藉此产生一第一取样结果S1以供控制电路124分析,第一取样电路122的一实施例如图2所示,包含N个闩锁器210,该N个闩锁器210按信号传输顺序分别用来依据时脉信号CLK取样无延迟的第一信号D1(0D)、被延迟一个单位的第一信号D1(1D)、…、被延迟(N-1)个单位的第一信号D1((N-1)D),藉此产生第一取样结果S1包含N笔平行输出的取样数据,其中N为大于1的整数,数值可由实施者依需求决定,延迟信号D1(0D)至D1((N-1)D)可由已知或自行设计的延迟电路来产生。所述控制电路124例如为处理器或可执行本实施例所需的逻辑判断的电路,用来于第一取样结果S1包含第一信号D1的转换边缘(Transition Edge)(亦即0至1或1至0的准位变化边缘)时判定第一取样结果S1有效(有效第一取样结果S1例如为十个位元的取样值0000111111或1111000000),若第一取样结果S1无效(无效第一取样结果S1例如为所有取样值均为1或均为0之结果),则控制电路124令第一取样电路122再次取样第一信号D1以产生新的第一取样结果S1,直到第一取样结果S1有效为止。所述第一边缘调整电路126用来于第一取样结果S1有效时调整时脉信号CLK的转换边缘与第一信号D1的转换边缘的其中之一以满足一预设时序关系。As mentioned above, the first sampling circuit 122 is used to sample the first signal D1 according to the clock signal CLK, thereby generating a first sampling result S1 for analysis by the control circuit 124. An embodiment of the first sampling circuit 122 is shown in FIG. 2 As shown, N latches 210 are included, and the N latches 210 are respectively used to sample the first signal D1 (0D) without delay and the first signal delayed by one unit according to the clock signal CLK according to the signal transmission sequence. D1(1D), ..., the first signal D1((N-1)D) delayed by (N-1) units, thereby generating the first sampling result S1 includes N parallel output sampling data, where N is An integer greater than 1, the value can be determined by the implementer according to requirements, and the delay signals D1(0D) to D1((N-1)D) can be generated by a known or self-designed delay circuit. The control circuit 124 is, for example, a processor or a circuit that can execute the logic judgment required by this embodiment, and is used to include the transition edge (Transition Edge) of the first signal D1 in the first sampling result S1 (that is, 0 to 1 or 1 to 0 level change edge), it is determined that the first sampling result S1 is valid (the valid first sampling result S1 is, for example, ten-bit sampling value 0000111111 or 1111000000), if the first sampling result S1 is invalid (invalid first sampling The result S1 is, for example, the result that all sampled values are 1 or 0), then the control circuit 124 makes the first sampling circuit 122 re-sample the first signal D1 to generate a new first sampling result S1 until the first sampling result S1 until valid. The first edge adjustment circuit 126 is used for adjusting one of the transition edge of the clock signal CLK and the transition edge of the first signal D1 to satisfy a preset timing relationship when the first sampling result S1 is valid.
第一边缘调整电路126的一实施例如图3所示,包含M个延迟单元310、M个选择控制单元320(图式标号为SEL)与M个多工器330,每个延迟单元310可延迟一个延迟单位,用来依据输入信号输出延迟一或多个单位的第一信号D1,所述M个选择控制单元320用来依据控制电路120的一触发信号Ctrl_CLK(其频率等同于时脉信号CLK的频率)与M个边缘调整信号Shift_Ctrl_Reg令M个多工器330的每一个输出未延迟或延迟一或多个单位的第一信号D1,其中M为大于1的整数(例如M值等于前述的N值),举例来说,当M为3,3个边缘调整信号Shift_Ctrl_Reg为011,则收到0的第一个多工器330输出未延迟的第一信号D1、收到1的第二个多工器330输出延迟一个单位的第一信号D1、以及收到1的第三个多工器330输出延迟二个单位的第一信号D1做为最终输出的第一信号D1_Out以供实际取样或其它调整(例如相位调整)。在一实施例中,这些延迟单元310亦可用以产生第一取样电路122所需的延迟信号D1(0D)至D1((N-1)D)。An embodiment of the first edge adjustment circuit 126, as shown in FIG. One delay unit is used to output the first signal D1 delayed by one or more units according to the input signal, and the M selection control units 320 are used for a trigger signal Ctrl_CLK (whose frequency is equal to the clock signal CLK) of the control circuit 120 Frequency) and M edge adjustment signals Shift_Ctrl_Reg make each output of M multiplexers 330 undelayed or delayed by one or more units of the first signal D1, wherein M is an integer greater than 1 (for example, the M value is equal to the aforementioned N value), for example, when M is 3, and the three edge adjustment signals Shift_Ctrl_Reg are 011, then the first multiplexer 330 that receives 0 outputs the undelayed first signal D1, and the second multiplexer 330 that receives 1 The multiplexer 330 outputs the first signal D1 delayed by one unit, and the third multiplexer 330 that receives 1 outputs the first signal D1 delayed by two units as the final output first signal D1_Out for actual sampling or Other adjustments (such as phase adjustments). In an embodiment, the delay units 310 can also be used to generate the delayed signals D1 (0D) to D1 ((N−1)D) required by the first sampling circuit 122 .
承上所述,倘校准器120亦用来校准时脉信号CLK与第二信号D2的关系,则校准器120如图4所示进一步包含:一第二取样电路410用来依据时脉信号CLK取样第二信号D2以产生一第二取样结果S2;控制电路124用来于第二取样结果S2包含第二信号D2的转换边缘时判定第二取样结果S2有效;以及一第二边缘调整电路420用来于第二取样结果S2有效时调整时脉信号CLK的转换边缘与第二信号D2的转换边缘的其中之一以满足该预设时序关系,并输出校准后的信号(例如校准后的第二信号D2_Out)以供实际取样或后续调整(例如相位调整)。由于第二取样电路410与第二边缘调整电路420分别相同或等效于第一取样电路122与第一边缘调整电路126,冗余及重复的说明在此予以节略。时脉信号CLK与其它数据信号的关系的调整可以此类推。As mentioned above, if the calibrator 120 is also used to calibrate the relationship between the clock signal CLK and the second signal D2, the calibrator 120 further includes as shown in FIG. Sampling the second signal D2 to generate a second sampling result S2; the control circuit 124 is used to determine that the second sampling result S2 is valid when the second sampling result S2 includes a transition edge of the second signal D2; and a second edge adjustment circuit 420 It is used to adjust one of the transition edge of the clock signal CLK and the transition edge of the second signal D2 to meet the preset timing relationship when the second sampling result S2 is valid, and output a calibrated signal (for example, the calibrated first The second signal D2_Out) is used for actual sampling or subsequent adjustment (such as phase adjustment). Since the second sampling circuit 410 and the second edge adjustment circuit 420 are the same or equivalent to the first sampling circuit 122 and the first edge adjustment circuit 126 respectively, redundant and repeated descriptions are omitted here. The adjustment of the relationship between the clock signal CLK and other data signals can be deduced by analogy.
请参阅图5,其是第一边缘调整电路126调整时脉信号CLK与第一信号D1的边缘关系的一实施例的示意图,如图5所示,于一范围内(如图5的虚线所示),调整前的时脉信号CLK与第一信号D1的边缘不对齐,调整后的时脉信号CLK与第一信号D1的边缘靠近或对齐,此时前述预设时序关系是指二信号的边缘靠近或对齐,然此并非实施限制,实施者可视需求令二信号的边缘符合一特定关系即可。本实施例中,考虑到时脉信号CLK尚需用来取样其它数据信号,因此第一边缘调整电路126优先调整该第一信号的转换边缘,然实施者可视需求决定要调整何者,且能依本发明的揭示内容了解如何相对应地调整本发明的实施例。另外,若时脉信号CLK的上升缘做为取样数据的依据,则第一边缘调整电路126将第一信号D1的转换边缘调整至靠近或对齐时脉信号CLK的下降缘以满足该预设时序关系(如图5的虚线箭头所示),藉此时脉信号CLK的上升缘可靠近或对齐第一信号D1的二准位变化区间的中间,以提高对取样偏移的容忍度;而若时脉信号CLK的下降缘做为取样数据的依据,则第一边缘调整电路126将调整第一信号D1的转换边缘调整至靠近或对齐时脉信号CLK的上升缘,但只要实施为可能,实施者可视需求决定调整规则。Please refer to FIG. 5, which is a schematic diagram of an embodiment in which the first edge adjustment circuit 126 adjusts the edge relationship between the clock signal CLK and the first signal D1. As shown in FIG. shown), the clock signal CLK before adjustment is not aligned with the edge of the first signal D1, and the adjusted clock signal CLK is close to or aligned with the edge of the first signal D1. At this time, the aforementioned preset timing relationship refers to the The edges are close to or aligned, but this is not an implementation limitation, and the implementer can make the edges of the two signals conform to a specific relationship according to requirements. In this embodiment, considering that the clock signal CLK still needs to be used to sample other data signals, the first edge adjustment circuit 126 first adjusts the conversion edge of the first signal, but the implementer can decide which one to adjust according to the needs, and can Based on the disclosure of the present invention, it is understood how to adjust the embodiments of the present invention accordingly. In addition, if the rising edge of the clock signal CLK is used as the basis for sampling data, the first edge adjustment circuit 126 adjusts the transition edge of the first signal D1 to be close to or aligned with the falling edge of the clock signal CLK to meet the preset timing. relationship (as shown by the dotted arrow in FIG. 5 ), whereby the rising edge of the clock signal CLK can be close to or aligned with the middle of the two-level change interval of the first signal D1, so as to improve the tolerance to sampling offset; and if The falling edge of the clock signal CLK is used as the basis for sampling data, and the first edge adjustment circuit 126 adjusts the transition edge of the first signal D1 to be close to or aligned with the rising edge of the clock signal CLK, but as long as it is possible to implement, implement The operator can decide to adjust the rules according to the needs.
请再参阅图1,控制电路124于第一边缘调整电路126完成边缘调整后,可选择性地进一步依据这些数据信号来计数一特定数值的出现次数,并于该特定数值的出现次数符合一预设条件时令校准器120停止校准该时脉信号与该第一信号的关系,其中该预设条件可选择性地与频率相关,例如该预设条件可以是一预定时间内该出现次数介于或不小于一预定范围。举例而言,输入端110所接收的传输流于固定间距就会传送一同步信息,此同步信息为一特定数值,藉由计数同步信息于一预定时间内该出现次数,即可判断对这些数据信号所进行边缘调整是否正确。Please refer to FIG. 1 again, after the first edge adjustment circuit 126 completes the edge adjustment, the control circuit 124 can optionally further count the number of occurrences of a specific value according to these data signals, and when the number of occurrences of the specific value matches a The preset condition causes the calibrator 120 to stop calibrating the relationship between the clock signal and the first signal, wherein the preset condition can be selectively related to frequency, for example, the preset condition can be that the number of occurrences within a predetermined time is between Or not less than a predetermined range. For example, the transmission stream received by the input terminal 110 will transmit a synchronization information at a fixed interval, and the synchronization information is a specific value. By counting the number of occurrences of the synchronization information within a predetermined time, it can be judged whether the data is correct or not. Whether the edge adjustment of the signal is correct.
承上所述,若计数值未达到该预设数目(换言之特定数值的出现次数不符合该预设条件),代表校准未完成,则控制电路124可选择性地令校准器120调整第一信号D1的相位,此时校准器120如图6所示,进一步包含:一第一相位调整电路610,用来于控制电路124的控制下调整第一边缘调整电路126所输出的第一信号D1(后称D1_Out)的相位,并输出调整后的第一信号D1_Out。第一相位调整电路610的一实施例如图7所示,包含:X个延迟单元710、X个选择控制单元720(图式标号为SEL)与X个多工器730,每该延迟单元710例如是闩锁器,用来依据时脉信号CLK输出延迟一或多个单位的第一信号D1_Out,所述X个选择控制单元720用来依据控制电路120的触发信号Ctrl_CLK与X个相位调整信号Phase_Ctrl_Reg令X个多工器730的每一个输出未延迟或延迟一或多个单位的第一信号D1_Out,其中X为正整数,举例来说,当X为3,3个相位调整信号Phase_Ctrl_Reg为010,则收到0的第一个多工器730输出未延迟的第一信号D1_Out(即第一信号D1_Out未经过任何延迟单元710)、收到1的第二个多工器730输出延迟一个单位的第一信号D1_Out(即第一信号D1_Out经过一个延迟单元710)、以及收到0的第三个多工器730输出延迟一个单位的第一信号D1_Out(即第二个多工器730所输出之第一信号D1_Out)做为最终输出的第一信号D1_Out以供实际取样或其它调整(例如相位调整)。类似地,于相位调整电路610调整第一信号D1_Out的相位后,控制电路124可再依据这些数据信号来计数该特定数值的出现次数,并于该特定数值的出现次数符合该预设条件时令校准器120停止校准时脉信号CLK与第一信号D1的关系;或于该特定数值的出现次数不符合该预设条件时令校准器120再次调整第一边缘调整电路126所输出的第一信号D1_Out的相位。As mentioned above, if the count value does not reach the preset number (in other words, the number of occurrences of a specific value does not meet the preset condition), it means that the calibration is not completed, and the control circuit 124 can selectively make the calibrator 120 adjust the first signal The phase of D1, at this moment calibrator 120 as shown in Figure 6, further comprises: a first phase adjustment circuit 610, is used for adjusting the first signal D1 ( hereinafter referred to as the phase of D1_Out), and output the adjusted first signal D1_Out. An embodiment of the first phase adjustment circuit 610, as shown in FIG. It is a latch, which is used to output the first signal D1_Out delayed by one or more units according to the clock signal CLK, and the X selection control units 720 are used to adjust the signal Phase_Ctrl_Reg according to the trigger signal Ctrl_CLK of the control circuit 120 and the X phase adjustment signals Let each of the X multiplexers 730 output the first signal D1_Out that is not delayed or delayed by one or more units, where X is a positive integer, for example, when X is 3, the 3 phase adjustment signals Phase_Ctrl_Reg are 010, Then the first multiplexer 730 that receives 0 outputs the undelayed first signal D1_Out (that is, the first signal D1_Out does not pass through any delay unit 710), and the second multiplexer 730 that receives 1 outputs a delayed one-unit The first signal D1_Out (that is, the first signal D1_Out passes through a delay unit 710), and the third multiplexer 730 that receives 0 outputs the first signal D1_Out delayed by one unit (that is, the output of the second multiplexer 730 The first signal D1_Out) is used as the final output first signal D1_Out for actual sampling or other adjustments (such as phase adjustment). Similarly, after the phase adjustment circuit 610 adjusts the phase of the first signal D1_Out, the control circuit 124 can count the number of occurrences of the specific value according to these data signals, and calibrate when the number of occurrences of the specific value meets the preset condition. The calibrator 120 stops calibrating the relationship between the clock signal CLK and the first signal D1; or the calibrator 120 adjusts the first signal D1_Out output by the first edge adjustment circuit 126 again when the number of occurrences of the specific value does not meet the preset condition. phase.

For example, the switch is located between the source of the clock signal CLK and the first sampling circuit 122. When the control circuit 124 turns on the switch, the first sampling circuit 122 can perform sampling accordingly; when the sampling is completed for calibration Or after the calibration is completed, the control circuit 124 makes the switch non-conductive, thereby disabling the first sampling circuit 122 , at this time the control circuit 124 and the first edge adjustment circuit 126 can continue to operate to maintain the calibration effect. In addition, the control circuit 124 can select one of these data signals as the first signal D1 and/or select one of the other data signals as the second signal D2 according to a preset rule, similar signal selection And so on.

The transport stream is, for example, a transport stream from a terrestrial digital video broadcasting (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial, DVB-T) device or other video and audio transport streams. The transport stream includes multiple packets transmitted continuously, and the types of packets include image data packets. , audio data packets, and information packets (such as subtitles, program information, etc.). Each packet has a header (Header), which contains packet identification information (Packet Identifier (PID)) for identifying the type of the packet. The transport stream processor 800 includes: an input terminal 810 , a calibrator 820 and a processing unit 830 . The input terminal 810 receives the transport stream through multiple signal paths. The received transport stream includes one clock signal CLK, eight data signals D1 to D8, one valid signal Valid and one synchronous signal Sync. Each packet in the transport stream Packet data is distributed among data signals D1 to D8. The calibrator 820 includes eight sampling circuits, a control circuit, and eight edge adjustment circuits. These sampling circuits are used to respectively sample the data signals D1 to D8 according to the clock signal to generate eight sampling results. The control circuit is used for determining the validity of the sampling results respectively according to whether the sampling results contain transition edges of the corresponding data signals. The edge adjustment circuits are used to respectively adjust the transition edges of the data signals when the sampling results are valid, so that the adjusted transition edges of the data signals and the clock signal satisfy a preset timing relationship. During the calibration process, the calibrator 820 can further use the specific value corresponding to the synchronization signal Sync in the transport stream to determine whether the calibration result is correct. For example, when the valid signal Valid is 1 and the synchronous signal Sync is 1, the control circuit can determine whether the data contained in the data signals D1 to D8 is equal to the hexadecimal value 0x47 (that is, the binary value 01000111, here as the aforementioned specific value ), if so, increase a count value, otherwise keep the count value unchanged, within a certain time or number of signal cycles, if the count value reaches a preset number (in other words, the number of occurrences of a specific value satisfies the preset condition, such as the relevant frequency (the number of occurrences within a predetermined time period) is between 1/189 and 1/193), which means that the calibration is completed, and the control circuit makes the calibrator 820 stop the calibration. In addition, the calibrator 820 may further include eight phase adjustment circuits, which are used to adjust the phases of the data signals D1 to D8 adjusted by these edge adjustment circuits under the control of the control circuit. When the condition is set, the control circuit makes these phase adjustment circuits adjust the phases of the data signals D1 to D8. In this example, the operation, functions and implementation changes of each sampling circuit, control unit, each edge adjustment circuit and each phase adjustment circuit are as described in the previous embodiments. After the calibrator 820 completes the timing calibration of the transport stream, it outputs the calibrated transport stream to the processing unit 830 . The processing unit 830 includes a header detection module 832 and a PID determination module 834 . The header detection module 832 is used for identifying a header of a packet of data from the data signals D1 to D8 of the transport stream. In practice, the header detection module 832 may include a comparator for comparing whether the data in the data signals D1 to D8 conform to a specific identification code or a start code of a known packet header. If the comparison result is consistent, it means that a Header. When the header detecting module 832 identifies the header of a packet of data, the PID judging module 834 can judge the type of the packet data from the packet identification information (PID) in the header. When the package data is audio data, the PID judging module 834 is about to output the package data through an audio output path 842; when the package data is image data, the PID judgment module 834 is about to output the package data through an image output path 844; when the package data is For information data, the PID judging module 834 is about to output the packet data through an information output path 846 .
