Patent ID: 11894817
Assignee: TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED
Field: Basic communication processes (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 14:
15. A circuit, comprising:
a first slew boost circuit coupled to a first node, a second node, and a ground node, wherein, responsive to a first, non-zero voltage polarity between the first and second nodes, the first slew boost circuit is configured to provide a first current path to the ground node, wherein the first slew boost circuit includes a first transistor and a first current mirror; and
a second slew boost circuit coupled to the first and second nodes and to the ground node, wherein, responsive to a second, non-zero voltage polarity between the first and second nodes, the second slew boost circuit is configured to provide a second current path to the ground node, the second, non-zero polarity opposite the polarity of the first, non-zero polarity.
