Abstract

A circuit for translating bipolar signals into unipolar signals, in which the bipolar signals are applied to an amplifier whose gain is automatically controlled to produce bipolar signals of constant amplitude that are applied to two biased comparators for producing P DATA and N DATA signals of the same polarity. These signals are OR'd to provide R DATA signals.
