UEBERTRAGUNGSLEITUNGSTERMINATOR FUER EINEN AUF EINEM ABGETRENNTEN CHIP AUSGEBILDETEN TREIBER.

摘要

A signal transmission line terminator for an off-chip driver circuit is disclosed in which each capacitor and resistor comprising each terminator are formed on the same chip separate from the driver circuit chip. The close proximity of the elements of the terminator reduce the path lengths therebetween to a minimum. The structure substantially eliminates the corresponding inductive reactance and concommitant DELTA I noise at high switching rates employed in high performance computers.
