Clock extraction circuit

摘要

Disclosed is a clock extraction circuit for extracting a clock signal which furnishes timing for discriminating a data signal, from the data signal. The clock extraction circuit has a timing extraction unit for extracting the clock signal from the data signal, and a filter, which is provided in front of the timing extraction unit, having an upper limited frequency sufficiently lower than the bit rate of the data. The data signal is input to the timing extraction unit via the filter.
