Squelch Detection Circuit and Method

摘要

A squelch detection circuit and method involves a first comparator coupled to a complimentary input signal pair and having a first polarity output. A second comparator coupled to the complimentary input signal pair has a second polarity output. An offset associated with complimentary input signal pair establishes a positive squelch threshold and a negative squelch threshold. A calibration unit coupled to the first comparator and the second comparator generates a digital output including threshold settings and calibration settings to the first comparator and to the second comparator. The digital output can be associated with establishing the offset and with calibrating the positive squelch threshold and the negative squelch threshold.
