Abstract
A low power high-speed bus receiver which receives a pair of differential signals to obtain the corresponding logic value is provided. The bus receiver includes a differential amplifier, a pair of input switches and a pair of power switches. The differential amplifier has a pair of input terminals and a pair of power terminals. The pair of input switches are respectively connected between the pair of input terminals of the differential amplifier and the pair of differential signals. The pair of input switches are turned on for a predetermined time period to transmit the pair of differential signals to the differential amplifier. The pair of power switches are respectively connected between the pair of power terminals of the differential amplifier and a pair of external power supplies. The pair of power switches are turned on after the pair of input switches are turned on for the predetermined time period to enable the differential amplifier to amplify the difference between the pair of differential signals to obtain the corresponding logic value.
