Abstract
An envelope detection device for detecting a transmission signal of a high speed serial communication includes: an operation circuit, for receiving the transmission signal and generating a set of operated outputs according to the transmission signal and at least one reference signal; a reference signal generating circuit coupled to the operation circuit, for providing the reference signal to the operation circuit, wherein the reference signal generating circuit is operable to provide the reference signal with different voltage levels; and a comparing circuit coupled to the operation circuit, for comparing the set of calculated outputs to generate a comparison result. The envelope detection device detects a transmission state and a disconnect state of the high speed serial communication according to the comparison result generated based on the reference signals at different voltage levels.
