Interface circuitry of a storage device or other type of processing device comprises a digital input detector and an adaptive power supply. The digital input detector comprises an input transistor. The adaptive power supply provides a variable supply voltage to the digital input detector that varies with a threshold voltage of the input transistor. In one embodiment, the variable supply voltage provided to the digital input detector by the adaptive power supply varies with the threshold voltage of the input transistor about a set point value determined as a function of an expected logic level of an input signal. For example, the set point value may be determined as a function of a minimum expected logic high input signal level. In such an arrangement, the input transistor is biased at or close to the threshold voltage for an input signal having the minimum expected logic high input signal level.
