Bipolar receiver with ECL to CMOS logic level conversion

A bipolar receiver which generates relatively large output voltage transitions. Current mirror regulated current steered by an ECL switch is mirrored to output transistors, allowing the output node to operate within one Vbe of the supply without saturation of the receiver transistors.
