System and method of translating wide common mode voltage ranges into narrow common mode voltage ranges

摘要

A system and method is provided for translating a wide common mode voltage range into a narrow common mode voltage range. The system and method extend the common mode voltage range of functional devices beyond the supply rails of the functional device, while keeping the differential signal loss to a minimum. The system and method translate a common mode input signal from a wide common mode voltage range into a narrow common mode voltage range utilizing a feedback technique.
