The present disclosure provides a signal converting circuit including a phase interpolator circuit and a bias voltage generation circuit. The phase interpolator circuit is configured to convert multiple input clock signals into an output clock signal according to a digital signal. The bias voltage generation circuit is electrically coupled to the phase interpolator circuit, is configured to generate a bias voltage according to reference information and is configured to output the bias voltage to the phase interpolator circuit, so that the output clock signal has a predetermined phase corresponding to one of multiple bit configurations of the digital signal. The reference information is relevant to a change of the phase interpolator circuit due to a manufacture process variation.
