Abstract

A clock/data recovery circuit includes a data duty correction circuit which outputs corrected data by correcting the duty of input data in accordance with the level of a correction signal, a clock recovery circuit which generates a recovered clock in synchronism with the edge timing of the corrected data, a data decision circuit which performs data decision of the corrected data based on the recovered clock, and a data duty detection circuit which detects the duty of the corrected data based on the recovered clock and outputs the correction signal representing a duty correction amount to the data duty correction circuit.
