An asynchronous data holding circuit including a source synchronizer which acquires an enable signal synchronized with a destination clock, in response to a rising or falling edge of the enable signal, acquires the other one of the rising or falling edge of the enable signal in synchronization with a source clock, and outputs the enable signal, a first data holding unit which holds a data signal from the source, in response to the enable signal from the source synchronizer and the source clock, a destination synchronizer which outputs the enable signal from the source synchronizer, in synchronization with the destination clock, and a second data holding unit which holds the data signal in the first data holding unit in response to the enable signal from the destination synchronizer and the destination clock, is provided.
