Abstract
A circuit for receiving an input signal is described. The receiver comprises a first receiver input configured to receive a first input of a differential input signal; a second receiver input configured to receive a second input of a differential input signal; a differential pair having an inverting input and a non-inverting input; a first impedance matching element coupled to the differential pair, wherein the first impedance matching element provides DC impedance matching from the inverting input and non-inverting input of the differential pair; and a second impedance matching element coupled to the differential pair, wherein the second impedance matching element provides AC impedance matching from the inverting input and non-inverting input of the differential pair.
