Abstract
A phase comparing and CMI/NRZ decoding apparatus for accomplishing bit synchronization of CMI data by producing rising transition or falling transition of the clock pulse at the center of unit bit interval of incoming CMI data, by use of the clock pulse having a period equivalent to 2 unit bit intervals of CMI data, and for realizing stable decoding of CMI data to NRZ data. This apparatus is implemented by means of a data output means 2, a clock pulse generating means 1 for generating in-phase and inverse-phase pulses, a inter-transitions time interval information output means 3 for outputting information about line interval between the data transition and the clock pulse transition, a reference pulse generating means 4, a falling transition detecting and 3-step half-period shifting means 6, a rising transition detecting and 2-step half-period shifting means 5, a CMI/NRZ decoding circuit 7 and a code violation detecting means 8.
