Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system and method for controlling the drive strength of output drivers in integrated circuit devices employing, in a representative embodiment, a single reference voltage and a single comparator without the requirement of a dead-band. The technique of the present invention guarantees that the output voltage will always be within one least significant bit of drive strength of the target level that is set by the single reference voltage.
