<p>An integrated circuit driver (165A, 165B) provides, among other things, a high data communication rate, a large common mode output voltage range, avoidance of spikethrough current that increases power consumption, improved switching speed using current-steering techniques, and improved matching of steady-state output current in the high logic state to that of the low logic state. The driver (165A, 165B) includes complementary differential pairs (212, 214) and associated current mirror circuits (216, 222) that differentially source/sink current at a pair of load conductors (110A, 110B) to drive the load conductors (110A, 110B) into a logic state. A single-ended embodiment is also described.</p> |
