发明名称 Series terminated CMOS output driver with impedance calibration
摘要 A differential line driver includes a plurality of driver cells. Control logic outputs positive and negative control signals to the driver cells so as to match a combined output impedance of the driver cells at (Vop, Von). Each driver cell includes an input Vip and an input Vin, an output Vop and an output Von, a first PMOS transistor and a first NMOS transistor having gates driven by the input Vip, and a second PMOS transistor and a second NMOS transistor having gates driven by the input Vin. A source of the first PMOS transistor is connected to a source of the second PMOS transistor. A source of the first NMOS transistor is connected to a source of the second NMOS transistor. First and second resistors are connected in series between the first PMOS transistor and the first NMOS transistor, and connected together at Von. Third and fourth resistors are connected in series between the second PMOS transistor and the second NMOS transistor, and connected together at Vop. A first output switch is driven by a corresponding positive control signal and connected between a supply voltage and the sources of the first and second PMOS transistors. A second output switch driven by a corresponding negative control signal and connected between a ground and the sources of the first and second PMOS transistors.
