A buffer circuit includes a transistor cascode circuit, a latch circuit, a first transistor, a second transistor, and a voltage generator. The transistor cascode circuit is biasing at a first voltage. The latch circuit is biasing at a second voltage, whose voltage level is negative. The first transistor and the second transistor are coupling between the transistor cascode circuit and the latch circuit, and a gate of the first transistor is coupled to a gate of the second transistor. The voltage generator provides a biasing voltage to the gate of the first transistor and adjusts a voltage level of the biasing voltage dynamically according to a voltage level of the second voltage. The biasing voltage is at a first level when the buffer circuit is initially turned on, and the biasing voltage is at a second level when the buffer circuit enters the steady state.

An integrated circuit includes first circuitry and sleep transistor circuitry. The first circuitry receives input signals and processes the input signals. The first circuitry also retains data in a sleep state that has low leakage. The sleep transistor circuitry is coupled to the first circuitry and receives a sleep signal. The sleep circuitry reduces power consumption of the first circuitry in the sleep state to have low leakage based on the sleep signal while retaining the data in the first circuitry.

A system and method is disclosed for providing a clock and data recovery circuit that comprises a low jitter data receiver. The low jitter data receiver comprises a phase interpolator, an amplifier unit and a data sampling comparator. The phase interpolator and the amplifier unit provide the data sampling comparator with a single ended clock signal that is relatively immune to power supply noise. The data sampling comparator samples an input data stream with minimal jitter due to power supply noise. The data sampling comparator consumes less static power than a current mode logic D flip flop and also has output levels that are compatible with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic.
