FEEDBACK-CONTROLLED CURRENT-SHAPED OUTPUT OF DIGITAL SIGNALS FOR REDUCING MAGNETIC COUPLING

Various arrangements for decreasing harmonics of an output digital signal are presented. A programmable current rise-time circuit may be present that controls a rising edge of the output digital signal, wherein the output digital signal is output to an input/output (I/O) pad. A programmable current fall-time circuit may be present that controls a falling edge of the output digital signal. A feedback circuit may be present that monitors a rise-time of the rising edge of the output digital signal and fall-time of the falling edge of the output digital signal. A control circuit may be present that provides a first input to the programmable current rise-time circuit to adjust the rise-time of the rising edge of the output digital signal and a second input to the programmable current fall-time circuit to adjust the fall-time of the falling edge of the output.
