Sampling phase selection method for a stream of data bits

The current disclosure discloses a sampling phase selection method for a data stream, wherein the data stream has a variable data rate in a fixed time period. The method comprises the following steps: generating M section signals with the same time interval during the fixed time period of the data stream, generating N continuous clock phases according to a rising edge of each of the section signals, selecting one of the continuous clock phases corresponding to the different section signals in turn to provide a sampling phase, performing a plurality of samplings on the data stream to generate a flag signal, repeating the selecting and the sampling steps to generate N flag signals corresponding to the different section signals, and selecting a final sampling phase according to the N flag signals corresponding to the different section signals.
