Abstract
An interface circuit for a serial bus is disclosed and includes a receiving terminal, an output terminal, a first switching circuit, a voltage source, and a second switching circuit. The receiving and output terminals are used for receiving an input signal and outputting a first voltage signal respectively. The first switching circuit is used for determining a coupling relationship between the output terminal and the grounded terminal according to difference between the input signal and a grounding voltage provided by the grounded terminal. The voltage source is used for producing a voltage drop based on a driving voltage driving the serial bus interface circuit to provide a first voltage. The second switching circuit is used for determining a coupling relationship between the first switching circuit and the voltage source according to difference between the input signal and the first voltage.
