<p>A frame synchronization detecting circuit is provided which is capable of efficiently reducing power consumption in a hunting state. The frame synchronization detecting circuit composed of a frame synchronization pattern detecting circuit (41), a receiver frame counter (42) and a state transition judging circuit (43) has an in-house phase frame counter (42) adapted to produce a receiving frame enable signal having a pulse width of "2 delta + alpha " (nsec) in a timing manner that an in-house frame pulse (FP) rises at a midpoint of the pulse width of the receiving frame enable signal. While the frame synchronization detecting circuit is in a hunting state in which a frame synchronization pattern is being sought by the frame synchronization pattern detecting circuit (41), only when the above receiving frame enable signal is in an enable state, a synchronization clock is fed to the frame synchronization pattern detecting circuit (41) and the state transition judging circuit (43). <IMAGE></p> |
