Abstract

A clock recovery circuit has a boundary detection/discrimination circuit to detect and discriminate a boundary in an input signal in accordance with a first signal. The clock recovery circuit performs clock recovery by controlling the timing of the first signal in accordance with the detected boundary, wherein boundary detection timing in the boundary detection/discrimination circuit is varied by controlling the first signal.
