Abstract

See full text

A conversion circuit includes a replica feedback loop circuit and a CML to CMOS converter. The replica feedback loop circuit of a conversion circuit includes a first inverter, a first-stage amplifier and a second-stage amplifier. An input terminal of the first inverter is shorted to an output terminal of the first inverter. The second-stage amplifier of the replica feedback loop circuit is a replica of a half of a differential amplifier of the CML to CMOS converter. The replica feedback loop circuit is configured to generate a bias voltage that is used to bias the differential amplifier of the CML to CMOS converter, such that a common mode (CM) voltage outputted by the differential amplifier is same as a switching threshold voltage of a second inverter of the CML to CMOS converter.
