Abstract: A semiconductor device includes first and second buffers respectively outputting reception data and clock signals; a latch circuit latching the reception data signal in response to the reception clock signal; a delay circuitry delaying the reception clock signal by a set delay time; and a delay control circuitry which searches a first delay time while increasing the set delay time from an initial value; searches a second delay time while increasing the set delay time from the first delay time; searches a third delay time while decreasing the set delay time from the second delay time; and determines an optimum delay time from the first and third delay times. The first and third delay times are determined so that the reception data is stabilized to a first value and the second delay time is determined so that the reception data is stabilized to a second value.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes first to sixth external connection terminals, a first receiver connected to the first and second external connection terminals, a second receiver connected to the third and fourth external connection terminals, a third receiver connected to the fifth and sixth external connection terminals, a C-PHY block, a D-PHY block and a main processing section. The C-PHY block is configured to generate first reception data by performing signal processing on signals received from the first, second and third receivers in accordance with the MIPI C-PHY specification. The D-PHY block is configured to generate second reception data by performing signal processing on signals received from the first, second and third receivers in accordance with the MIPI D-PHY specification. The main processing section is configured to selectively receive the first and second reception data and perform desired processing on the received data.
