Semiconductor device, receiver, transmitter, transceiver and communication system

摘要

A semiconductor device includes: a clock and data recovery unit to which a receive signal is inputted and which extracts, based on an operation clock signal, a clock signal and a data signal from the receive signal; a frequency error adjusting unit which generates a frequency error signal indicating a frequency error between the clock signal extracted from the receive signal and the operation clock signal; a frequency error signal storage unit which stores the frequency error signal; an operation clock generation unit which controls, based on the frequency error signal, a frequency of the operation clock signal; and an SSCG unit which, based on the value of the frequency error signal stored in the frequency error signal storage unit, varies the operation clock signal generated by the operation clock generation unit by spreading the spectrum of the operation clock signal.

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a clock and data recovery unit to which a receive signal is inputted and which extracts, based on an operation clock signal, a clock signal and a data signal from the receive signal; a frequency error adjusting unit which generates a frequency error signal indicating a frequency error between the clock signal extracted from the receive signal and the operation clock signal; a frequency error signal storage unit which stores the frequency error signal; an operation clock generation unit which controls, based on the frequency error signal, a frequency of the operation clock signal; and a Spread Spectrum Clock Generator (SSCG) unit which varies the frequency of the operation clock signal by the SSCG unit based on the frequency error signal stored in the frequency error signal storage unit.
