Abstract

One example discloses An equalizer, including: a first transistor and a second transistor both coupled to a first differential input (IP); a third transistor and a fourth transistor both coupled to a second differential input (IN); a first impedance (Z) coupled between the second transistor and the third transistor; a second impedance (Z) coupled between the first transistor and the fourth transistor; a first load resistance (R) coupled to a first supply node; a second load resistance (R) coupled to the first supply node; a current steering circuit coupled between the first, second, third and fourth transistors and the first and second load resistances; and a controller; wherein the controller is configured to adjust the current steering circuit to route a first percentage of an amplification current through the first impedance (Z) and a second percentage of the amplification current through the second impedance (Z).
