Circuitry to support a power/area efficient method for high-frequency pre-emphasis for chip to chip signaling

The invention relates to digital signaling and more particularly to high frequency pre-emphasis of a digital signal. A circuit which allows for a more efficient pre-emphasis of a high frequency inter-chip signal. The circuit uses a single predriver stage to equalize a signal when a transition in val...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to digital signaling and more particularly to high frequency pre-emphasis of a digital signal. A circuit which allows for a more efficient pre-emphasis of a high frequency inter-chip signal. The circuit uses a single predriver stage to equalize a signal when a transition in value of a digital signal is detected. The circuit equalizes the signal with decreased power and area requirements for greater efficiency.
