Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for a receiver device for receiving data signals from devices of disparate types. An amplifier is configured to receive a voltage reference signal and a data signal, the data signal being received from a device, the amplifier being configured to output an output signal based on a comparison of the data signal to the voltage reference signal. A voltage reference level shifter is configured to selectively level shift the voltage reference signal supplied to the amplifier based on a type of device with which the receiver is communicating. A data signal level shifter is configured to selectively level shift the data signal supplied to the amplifier based on the type of device with which the receiver is communicating.
