The proposed architecture works at a frequency equal to one-fourth the received data rate and utilizes a quarter-rate early-late type phase detector, a delay line, a delay line controller, and a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO)-based 8-phases generator. The proposed architecture can be adapted easily for different FPGA families, as well as implemented as an integrated circuit. Moreover, it can be used in a deserializer as part of a SERDES in inter-module communication in SoC. The proposed architecture is designed using the Verilog language and synthesized for the Altera DE2-70 development board. Furthermore, the simulation results validate the expected functionality, such as performing quarter-rate phase detection as well as 1-to-4 demultiplexing. The synthesized design requires 117 logic elements using the above Altera board. {\^A}{\copyright} 2011 IEEE.}, keywords = {Clock and data recovery; Deserializers; Phase detectors; Serializers; System-On-Chip, Application specific integrated circuits; Clocks; Computer hardware description languages; Field programmable gate arrays (FPGA); Programmable logic controllers; Signal detection; Waves, Antenna phased arrays}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84867955076&doi=10.1109\%2fICIAS.2012.6306128&partnerID=40&md5=6146e34b1a4874a7b2f6a4482f976cd4}, isbn = {9781457719677}, author = {Alser, M.
