Abstract
An amplitude control circuit comprises a first circuit configured to receive differential signals and provide a first signal based on the amplitudes of the differential signals, a second circuit configured to receive a bias signal and provide a second signal based on the bias signal, and a third circuit configured to provide bias to the first circuit and the bias signal to the second circuit. The bias signal is set to provide selected amplitudes of the differential signals.
