Described are transmitters with RAM-DAC based pre-emphasis filters that can be updated adaptively without interfering with data transmission. The memory within the RAM-DAC is divided into active and inactive memory locations, in which active memory locations are those to be accessed in the near future, and consequently cannot be updated (written to) at a given time due without inducing a read/write conflict. One embodiment monitors incoming memory addresses to find an adequate time window for a write to take place without a read interference. Another embodiment includes two memory blocks with similar address space, one of which may be updated as the other is used to for data transmission. Some embodiments employ a RAM-DAC with reduced memory size and complexity.
