Low power receiver with equalization circuit and method therefor

A low power receiver having a feedforward equalization, FFE, based continuous time linear equalizer, CTLE. The FFE CTLE comprises: an input for receiving an input signal (510); a main first path (532) operably coupled to the input and comprising a source-follower transistor (520) arranged to apply a scaling factor to the received input signal; a second path (560) operably coupled to the input and comprising a delay (540) arranged to apply a delay to the received input signal and a common source transistor (530) arranged to apply a scaling factor to the received delayed input signal, wherein the source-follower transistor and the common source, CS, transistor are connected as a single SF-CS stage whose output is arranged to subtract the output of the common source transistor from an output of the source-follower transistor.
