Abstract
There is provided an electronic device for receiving an input data signal and an input clock signal that indicates a timing to obtain the input data signal. The electronic device includes a first adjusting section that adjusts a phase difference between the input data signal and the input clock signal so as to be equal to a first phase difference, and outputs the resulting signals as a first data signal and a first clock signal, a phase varying section that outputs a second clock signal having a designated phase difference with respect to the first clock signal, and a second adjusting section that adjusts the phase difference of the second clock signal with respect to the first clock signal so as to be equal to a second phase difference, based on a result of obtaining the first clock signal at a varying timing of the second clock signal.
