1. A method for processing signals, the method comprising:

  • in an integrated circuit;

    amplifying received electrical signals in a plurality of partial voltage domains; and

    combining said amplified received signals, utilizing a stacked cascode amplifier for each partial voltage domain, into a single differential signal in a single voltage domain, wherein each of said partial voltage domains is offset by a DC voltage from other of said partial voltage domains and wherein a sum of said plurality of partial domains is equal to a supply voltage of said integrated circuit.
