A transceiver comprises a transmitter that converts a plurality of data components into serial data in response to a first clock signal and transmits the serial data, and a receiver that receives the serial data and converts the serial data into the plurality of data components in response to a second clock signal generated from the serial data. The transmitter adds at least one dummy bit to the serial data at predetermined intervals. The at least one dummy bit includes information regarding a data type of the plurality of data components.
