Abstract

A CDR circuit includes an AD converter that converts an analog input signal to a digital output signal according to an operation clock signal; a phase adjuster that subtracts a first phase from a first clock signal having a first frequency equal to a frequency of the input signal to output a second clock signal having a second frequency as the operation clock signal to the AD converter; a phase detector that detects a second phase in the output signal of the AD converter; a filter that obtains a third phase by performing a filtering process based on the first phase, the second phase, and the third phase output from the filter; an adder that adds the first phase and the third phase to obtain a fourth phase; and a decision circuit that obtains recovered data from the output signal of the AD converter using the fourth phase.
