Abstract
A signal detector includes an input to receive a differential signal, a generator to generate a first voltage based on the differential signal and a second voltage based on the first voltage and a predetermined voltage, and an output stage to output a detection signal based on the first voltage and the second voltage. The differential signal includes a first signal and a second signal. The detection signal has a first value when a difference between the first and second signals is in a first range and a second value when the difference between the first and second signals is in a second range. The detection signal may indicate the presence or absence of low frequency periodic signaling for the differential signal. Such a detector may demonstrate fast response and operate at low-current.
