An integrated circuit and method of generating a bias signal for a data
signal receiver is disclosed. One embodiment provides a replica circuit
configured to generate a feedback signal, wherein the replica circuit is
a replica of at least a part of a data signal receiver, and wherein the
feedback signal depends on a reference signal of the data signal
receiver. A compensation circuit is configured to compensate an influence
of the reference signal on the feedback signal. An amplifier circuit is
configured to generate a bias signal based on the feedback signal, the
bias signal being provided to the data signal receiver.
