Abstract

An apparatus. The apparatus includes at least a first comparator device, which is designed to compare a first input current with a first reference current and, based on the comparison, to output a first output current to a second comparator device, wherein the first output current corresponds to a difference of the first reference current and the first input current if the first input current is smaller than the first reference current, and wherein the first output current corresponds to a difference of the first input current and the first reference current if the first input current is greater than or equal to the first reference current.
