Abstract:
1. A receiving circuit configured to receive a transmission signal that is transmitted through a plurality of signal transmission lines, the receiving circuit comprising: a clock generator configured to generate a clock based on a change of the values of the transmission signal; and a decoder configured to decode the transmission signals based on the clock, wherein the decoder is configured so that, taking a period corresponding to an interval at which the clock is generated as an elementary period, the decoder decodes the transmission signals based on at least a value of the transmission signals received over a first elementary period and a value of the transmission signals received over a second elementary period, the first and second elementary periods being consecutive elementary periods, and if the value of the transmission signals received over a trailing elementary period of any two consecutive elementary periods is a predetermined specific value, then, the decoder decodes the transmission signals corresponding to the two consecutive elementary periods as if the value of the transmission signals received over a leading elementary period of the two consecutive elementary periods were received over both of the leading and the trailing elementary periods.
