A transmission device which transmits a clock and data to each of N reception devices arranged one-dimensionally, comprising: data output terminals which output data individually to each of the N reception devices, and a first clock output terminal which outputs a common clock to a reception device of p reception devices arranged successively among the N reception devices, the reception device successively outputting the common clock to the remainder of the p reception devices in a serial fashion, and a control unit which adjusts a phase difference between data output from the data output terminals corresponding to each of the p reception devices and a clock output from the first clock output terminal, wherein the data output terminals corresponding to each of the N reception devices are arranged in a same order as the order of arrangement of the N reception devices, the first clock output terminal is located at a first direction side of all the data output terminals corresponding to each of the p reception devices, with no data output terminals interposed in-between that correspond to reception devices other than the p reception devices among the N reception devices, and N and p are integers equal to or larger than two.
