Claim 9:
10. The receiver of claim 9, wherein the differential signal generator includes:
a single-ended to differential (S2D) converter configured to convert a main signal having the same phase as a phase of the single-ended PAM-N signal and an inverted signal obtained by inverting a phase of the main signal based on the reference signal;
a differential amplifier configured to amplify the main signal and the inverted signal;
a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) configured to remove an influence of Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) expected according to a signal level of the amplified main signal and the amplified inverted signal in a previous signal period, from the main signal and the inverted signal in a current signal period; and
a differential compensator configured to generate the differential signals by applying the pair of compensation signals to the main signal and the inverted signal from which the influence of the ISI has been removed.
