Abstract
The invention concerns a circuit comprising: a first transistor () having a first main current node coupled to a first voltage signal (CN), a control node coupled to a second voltage signal (CP) and a second main current node coupled to an output node () of the circuit; a second transistor () having a first main current node coupled to a third voltage signal (CN), a control node coupled to a fourth voltage signal (CP) and a second main current node coupled to said output node of the circuit; and circuitry () adapted to generate said first, second, third and fourth voltage signals based on a pair of differential input signals (CP, CN), wherein said first and second voltage signals are both referenced to a first supply voltage (VDD) and wherein said third and fourth voltage signals are both referenced to a second supply voltage (GND).
