Abstract: A data/clock recovery circuit can recover high-rate data using the data as a clock signal. It includes an edge detector, a clock selection signal generating circuit, a clock selection circuit and a synchronizing circuit. The edge detector generates edge position information using a receiver output as a clock signal. The clock selection signal generating circuit generates a clock selection signal in response to the edge position information using the receiver output as the clock signal. The clock selection circuit selects a recovered clock signal from a clock signal group in response to the clock selection signal. The synchronizing circuit synchronizes the receiver output using the recovered clock signal, and outputs it as a synchronized data signal.

Abstract: The number of pulses of a clock signal CLK-A is circularly counted in a count range from “0” to “7”, and count signals indicating count values are produced. A clock signal CLK-B having a frequency lower than that of the clock signal CLK-A is produced from count signals of “3” and “7”, and data transfer between a high speed operating block operated in synchronization with the clock signal CLK-A and a low speed operating block operated in synchronization with the clock signal CLK-B is performed in synchronization with the clock signal CLK-B to receive input serial data or transmit output serial data. When a stuff bit of universal Serial Bus is detected in the input serial data or is inserted in the output serial data, a cycle of the clock signal CLK-B is lengthened by one cycle of the clock signal CLK-A.

Abstract: A clock supply select circuit controls supply of receive clock and transmit clock to a receiver and a transmitter. The clock supply select circuit includes a clock generate circuit generating internal clock of the reference, and clock modulate circuit generating a modulate clock signal modulated such that at least one of frequency fluctuation, phase fluctuation, waveform fluctuation and jitter is applied to the internal clock. In a normal operation mode, the internal clock is supplied as receive clock and transmit clock, and in a loopback operation mode, while the internal clock is supplied as receive clock, modulate clock signal is supplied as transmit clock.

Abstract: A FIFO circuit includes a write counter circuit, a memory circuit, a read counter circuit and a selector circuit. The write counter circuit counts a write clock signal during a valid period of input data, and outputs a write counter value. The memory circuit stores the input data in response to the write counter value. The read counter circuit counts a read clock signal when a decision is made that the memory circuit includes data that has not yet been read out, and outputs a read counter value. The read selector circuit reads data from the memory circuit in response to the read counter value. A small scale FIFO circuit can be obtained.
