A transmission/reception device includes a transmission circuit configured to apply a delay to at least one of a positive signal and a negative signal of differential signals to be sent to another device, detect a direction of a differential signal skew between the positive signal and the negative signal, to at least one of which the delay is applied, and control the delay in a manner as to reduce the differential signal skew; and a reception circuit configured to apply a delay to at least one of a positive signal and a negative signal of differential signals sent from another transmission/reception device, detect a direction of a differential signal skew between the positive signal and the negative signal, to at least one of which the delay is applied, and control the delay in a manner as to reduce the differential signal skew.
