The disclosure relates to an alternating current (AC) coupling circuit including first and second capacitors having first and second input terminals configured to receive an input differential signal and generate an output differential signal at first and second output terminals of the first and second capacitors. The AC coupling circuit further includes a baseline wander correction circuit configured to make the output differential signal resistant to baseline wander due to the input differential signal including one or more time intervals of unbalanced data. The baseline wander correction circuit includes a differential difference amplifier (DDA) having a first differential input configured to receive the input differential signal, a differential output configured to generate a compensation differential signal, and a second differential input configured to receive the compensation differential signal. The compensation differential signal is applied to the output terminals of the first and second capacitors via a pair of resistors, respectively.
