Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, a method includes receiving a first differential logic signal using a first branch of a circuit that extends from a voltage supply of the circuit as far as an earth terminal of the circuit and has at least one first differential transistor pair, receiving a second differential logic signal using a second branch of the circuit that extends from the voltage supply to the earth terminal and has at least one second differential transistor pair, conducting a current flow between the first branch and the second branch, and outputting an output signal by the second branch.
