Abstract

A comparison period determiner (110) detects whether or not a change occurs in received data during a comparison period including a timing at which a rising edge of a reference clock occurs. A phase determiner (120) determines whether a rising edge of the received data is located before or after the reference clock and determines whether a falling edge of the received data is located before or after the reference clock, and outputs a first determination signal and a second determination signal indicating results of the respective determinations. A synchronous data generator (130) outputs a signal having a level depending on a result of the detection by the comparison period determiner (110) and an output of the phase determiner (120), as synchronous data, in synchronization with a synchronization clock.
