Patent ID: 8737625

Claim:
A receiving apparatus that receives scrambled data by serial communication, comprising: an initialization signal generation circuit configured to generate an initialization signal; and a descramble circuit configured to descramble reception data by a descrambler initialized by the initialization signal, wherein the reception data comprises a training data set for establishing connection of the serial communication, the training data set comprising one or more connection establishing data sets, the connection establishing data set comprises one or more initialization symbols and one or more pieces of data other than the initialization symbols, and the initialization signal generation circuit is configured to generate the initialization signal for initializing the descrambler at least at an initialization last timing such that even when a last initialization symbol among the initialization symbols forming a last connection establishing data set of the training data set is corrupted, the descrambler is still initialized by the initialization signal, wherein the initialization last timing is a time at which the last initialization symbol among the initialization symbols forming the last connection establishing data set of the training data set is input to the descrambler.
