Abstract
In a data processing device including two sets of circuit pairs which are respectively duplicated in two clock domains which are asynchronous to each other, an asynchronous transfer circuit that transfers a payload signal is provided between the two sets of circuit pairs. The asynchronous transfer circuit includes two sets of a pair of bridge circuits which are respectively connected to the two sets of circuit pairs, and asynchronously transfers the payload signal and a control signal indicating a timing at which the payload signal is stable on a reception side. The two sets of a pair of bridge circuits and the payload signals can be duplicated, but the control signal is not duplicated, and the received payload signal is used for timing control to supply an expected same time difference, to the pair of duplicated circuits. This enables asynchronous transfer between circuits duplicated in the asynchronous clock domains.
