The objective of the invention is to facilitate connections to lower-spec devices. Digital signals, which have been subjected to coding, are transmitted to an external device over a plurality of channels via transmission paths by use of differential signals. In this case, digital signals, which have been subjected to a first coding for which clock extractions cannot be performed, are transmitted over some of the plurality of channels, while digital signals, which have been subjected to a second coding for which clock extractions can be performed, are transmitted over the others of the plurality of channels. On the reception side, the digital signals received over the plurality of channels are processed on the basis of clocks extracted from the digital signals received over any one of said others of the plurality of channels. |
