An interchannel skew adjustment circuit adjusts signal skew between a first channel and a second channel. The circuit includes a phase adjustment circuit configured to receive a signal of the first channel, delay the signal by a discretely variable delay amount, and output a delayed signal; a channel coupling circuit configured to receive the signal output from the phase adjustment circuit and a signal of the second channel, and detect a phase difference between these two signals; and a controller configured to control the delay amount in the phase adjustment circuit based on a result detected by the channel coupling circuit. This interchannel skew adjustment circuit adjusts the interchannel signal skew only at a sender or a receiver, thereby reducing the circuit area and the power consumption. |
