PURPOSE: A sampling clock generating circuit and a data receiving equipment using the same are provided to prevent data sampling miss due to jitter of a transmitted external clock signal. CONSTITUTION: A sampling clock generator circuit comprises a ring oscillator including series-connected m first inverters connected to a first power supply line, where m is an odd number equal to or larger than 3, a delay line including series-connected 2m or 2m-1 second inverters connected to a second power supply line, for delaying an externally supplied clock, and a PLL circuit for controlling an oscillation frequency of the ring oscillator by controlling a voltage of the first power supply line by using the ring oscillator as a voltage controlled oscillation circuit. A voltage of the second power supply line is set substantially equal to the voltage of the first power supply line and the delayed clock obtained by the second inverters is used as a sampling clock. |
