ABSTRACT:
A clock recovery circuit includes plural stages of first variable delay elements for sequentially delaying a data signal by a first delay amount, plural stages of second variable delay elements for sequentially delaying a clock signal by a second delay amount which is larger than the first delay amount, a plurality of timing comparators for sampling a plurality of the data signals delayed by the plural stages of first variable delay elements with the clock signal delayed by the second variable delay elements of the same stages, a plurality of EOR circuits for performing exclusive OR operation on a pair of sampling results by a pair of the sequential timing comparators, and a recovery variable delay circuit for delaying the clock signal based on the operation result of the plurality of EOR circuits.
