Abstract:
A signal-transfer system for transferring a signal via a line having no anti-signal-reflection resistor, said signal-transfer system comprising:a line having an equalized characteristic impedance Z.sub.0 ; andan output circuit having an output turn-on resistance Z.sub.0 /2 and outputting to said line a signal which has a voltage difference between a high level and a low level smaller than about 1 V, said output circuit including two driver transistors which are connected in series and receive inputs at gates thereof, a joint point between said two driver transistors connected to said line, said two driver transistors having the same turn-on resistance, one of said two driver transistors being turned on to output said signal to said line, and said inputs to the gates of said driver transistors being constant while said driver transistors are being either turned on or turned off.
