1. Receiver apparatus for a serial link, comprising: a first clock-data-recovery loop having a digitally controlled phase adjuster comprising recovery means to recover data and generation means to generate information about a phase difference between an input phase signal and a clock phase signal; a clock generator having a digitally controlled second phase adjuster to adjust a phase of said clock generator; a distributor to distribute phase difference information in digital form between said first clock-data-recovery loop and said digitally controlled second phase adjuster of said clock generator; and a synchronizer to transfer recovered data to a clock domain with a clock derived from said digitally controlled second phase adjuster of said clock generator.
