Output buffer with slew rate control utilizing an inverse process dependent current reference

An output driver circuit provides more constant slew rates in the presence of process, voltage, or temperature variations that affect performance. An open ended (no feedback) solution is utilized that provides more constant slew rates in spite of PVT variations. A first performance dependent current and a reference current are generated and a third current is generated that is inversely related to performance utilizing the reference current and the performance dependent current. The third current is supplied to a gate of a first transistor circuit forming a portion of the output driver to thereby control the slew rate.
