A delay section delays a detected signal by less than one bit time in the NRZ data. A subtraction section performs subtraction between a delayed signal and the detected signal, and outputs a resultant signal. A clock extraction section extracts, from crossing points of a subtracted signal, crossing points whose time interval is more than or equal to (Tb-.alpha.) and less than or equal to (Tb+.beta.) (wherein 0<.alpha..ltoreq.Tb/8, 0<.beta..ltoreq.Tb: Tb is one bit time in the NRZ data), and outputs a synchronous signal synchronized with the extracted crossing point. A clock recovery section synchronizes a clock signal with the phase of the synchronous signal, and outputs a data clock signal. A determination section determines the polarity of the subtracted signal outputted from the subtraction section in accordance with the data clock signal, and outputs the determination result as the NRZ data.
