Abstract

A data received is provided with DC restoration circuitry for correcting the DC level of received multi-level data signals. A DC shift detection circuit detects whether the received DC level multi-level signals has shifted due to a predominance of one of the data levels in the data stream. A correction circuit responds to the shift detection circuit by applying a corrective bias to an isolation transformer. Alternatively, the correction circuit applies a corrective bias to the received signals within the receiver circuit.
