Abstract:
1. A data transfer device for transferring blocks generated by dividing a frame into pieces of data each having a first predetermined number of bits and adding a synchronization header having a second predetermined number of bits to each of the blocks, comprising: a processing module configured to process an operation of the data transfer device; a buffer for storing the blocks to be transferred; and an interface configured to receive and transmit data to and from the data transfer device, wherein: the synchronization header is configured for synchronization of each of the blocks and has first information for identifying whether the respective block includes a control code other than user data; wherein the blocks comprise a first block, a second block, and a third block that are successively transferred in the stated order; the first block, the second block and the third block include a first synchronization header, a second synchronization header and a third synchronization header as the synchronization header, respectively; and the processing module is configured to:
