    摘要: A change-point detection circuit 16 extracts a clock signal from serial data, input data. A variable delay circuit provides a delay in accordance with a delay control signal to a reference signal having a predetermined frequency, so that the phase of the reference signal is shifted on the basis of an initial delay. An input latch circuit latches internal serial data by using an output signal of the variable delay circuit as a strobe signal. A phase comparator matches the frequencies of the clock signal and the strobe signal with each other, and generates phase difference data in accordance with a phase difference between the two signals. A loop filter integrates the phase difference data generated by the phase comparator and outputs it as the delay control signal. The phase shift amount acquisition unit acquires a phase shift amount based on the delay control signal, the phase shift amount being based on the initial delay provided to the reference signal by the variable delay circuit.

    摘要: A variable delay circuit provides an adjustable delay to a strobe signal. An input latch circuit latches each bit data included in internal serial data by a strobe signal delayed by the variable delay circuit. A delay set unit adjusts a delay amount provided to the strobe signal by the variable delay circuit. While a calibration operation is being executed in which a known calibration pattern is inputted as serial data, the delay set unit statistically acquires output latch data of the input latch circuit, and adjusts the delay amount such that probabilities of occurrence of 1 and 0 becomes a predetermined ratio.

    摘要: A delay setting data generator generates delay setting data based on rate data. A variable delay circuit delays the test pattern data by a delay time determined by the delay setting data with reference to a predefined unit amount of delay. First rate data designates the period of the test pattern data with a precision determined by the unit amount of delay. Second rate data designates the period of the test pattern data with a precision higher than that determined by the unit amount of delay. The delay setting data generator outputs a first value and a second value in a time division manner at a ratio determined by the second rate data, the first and second values being determined by the first rate data.
