ABSTRACT:
A single ended input circuit can receive an input signal and generate a correction voltage corresponding to a common mode voltage of the input signal. A comparison of the input signal can be adjusted in response to the correction voltage. In one arrangement, an input circuit (100) can include a compare section (102) with first input (104-0) and second input (104-1). The first input (104-0) can receive an input signal (IN). The second input (104-1) can receive a reference voltage generated by a common mode detect and hold (CMDH) section (106). A (CMDH) section (106) can include an integrator circuit (108), an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter circuit (110), a digital hold circuit (112), and a digital-to-analog (D/A) converter (114). A correction voltage generated by integrating the input signal can be applied as the generated reference voltage. In another arrangement, a voltage (CLKP-CLKN) generated by comparing an input signal (CLK) to an applied reference voltage (REF) can be integrated by an integrator (202) to generate a correction voltage. Such a correction can be applied as negative feedback to adjust the comparison between the input signal (CLK) to an applied reference voltage (REF). This correction voltage can also be applied to adjust the comparison of an input data signal to a reference voltage.
