A receive amplifier for high-speed data has a differential input stage with a very wide common-mode rejection range and low offset voltage. This input stage interfaces the differential data signals to be received. The input stage is a dual complementary differential configuration of ten MOS transistors preferably connected to provide a pair of differential inputs, a pair of differential outputs, and a single common-mode feedback input. The latter feedback input is used in the preferred embodiment to achieve balance and high common-mode rejection. Two-transistor CMOS inverters are preferably used both as amplifying stages after the input stage and as a feedback amplifier. In alternative embodiments, the nodes connected to the feedback input are instead reconnected to fixed voltages, typically one of the supply voltages or a fixed intermediate voltage, to form two independent amplifiers, one for each input node.
