Differential input receiver and method for reducing noise

摘要

An integrated circuit receiver includes a differential input receiver having a plurality of differential input transistors. A variable well voltage supply circuit varies the well voltages of the differential input transistors to change the input transistors threshold voltages to provide hysteresis control by varying well voltages of input transistors in opposite directions. A method for reducing noise for an integrated circuit receiver includes receiving an input signal by a differential input receiver, and changing into opposite directions the input transistors threshold voltages to provide hysteresis control by varying the first and second well voltages associated with each of a first differential input transistor and a second differential input transistor. At least one feedback signal is used from the differential input receiver as input to the variable well voltage supply circuit to vary the first and second well voltages to facilitate hysteresis control of the differential input receiver.
