Claim Text:
1. A receiver, for receiving a pair of differential signals provided by a transmitter, comprising: a control module, configured to generate an enable signal and provide a bias voltage when a predetermined change occurs in the differential signals, the control circuit comprising a low-speed data receiving circuit that generates the enable signal; a high-speed data receiving circuit, triggered by the enable signal to generate an output signal according to the differential signals and the bias voltage; and a masking circuit, triggered by the enable signal to start masking the output signal; wherein, when the control module provides the bias voltage, the output signal is in a first state wherein one of the pair of differential signals is maintained high by the bias voltage and the other one of the pair of differential signals is low; upon detecting that the output signal enters a second state from the first state, wherein the other of the pair of differential signals is high, caused by the transmitter, the control module stops providing the bias voltage and generates a disable signal to the masking circuit to prompt the masking circuit to stop masking the output signal, wherein the first state and the second state are in accordance with the Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI).
