A decoding circuit and a chip are disclosed. The decoding circuit includes, connected in a sequence, a charge/discharge unit, a capacitor and a conversion unit. The charge/discharge unit is able to charge and discharge the capacitor, and a ratio of a total time required to transfer any amount of charge into the capacitor to a total time required to transfer the same amount of charge from the capacitor is a predetermined value. The conversion unit is configured to output a third level when a voltage on the capacitor exceeds a predetermined voltage and to otherwise output a fourth level. This arrangement alleviates the computational burden of an MCU, eliminates any adverse effect of noise in a transmitted signal, allows an extended effective transmission distance when using an HBS protocol and is self-adaptive to signals transmitted at different clock rates, thus solving the problems with the prior art including heavy MCU computational burden, a tradeoff between error correction and transmission distance and insufficient adaptiveness to signals transmitted at different clock rates.
