Abstract

A receive module. The receive module has a first voltage divider for adjusting a first receive threshold; a first comparator, connected to the first voltage divider, for evaluating differential signals received from a bus of the bus system using the first receive threshold; a second voltage divider for adjusting a second receive threshold or a third receive threshold; a second comparator, connected to the second voltage divider, for evaluating the differential signals using the second or third receive threshold adjusted by the second voltage divider; and a switching unit for the switchover between the second and third receive threshold as a function of an operating mode of the receive module, to which the receive module is to be switched for a first or second communications phase of a communication on the bus, the first and second voltage dividers being connected to the bus in each case.
