Abstract: An improved slicer for a data receiver is described. In particular, an improved slicer architecture with improved noise immunity and improved tolerance to signal level shift of an input signal to the data receiver is disclosed. The improvement is achieved through using multiple comparators to account for a wider range of the noise and input signal level shift. Other methods and apparatuses are described therein, including a two-comparator and a four comparator embodiments.
