Abstract:
1. A driver, comprising, an input block for receiving one or more data signals and one or more control signals; a data control block for processing said data signals and said control signals to determine one or more modified control signals, wherein said modified control signal is determined as a function of one or more de-emphasis signals, one or more pre-emphasis signals, and the control signals, wherein said data control block comprises a first set of multiplexers, a second set of multiplexers, a pull-up circuit, and a pull-down circuit, wherein inputs of the first set of multiplexers are selected for output as a function of the data signals and the control signals, wherein outputs of the first set of multiplexers are inputted to the pull-up circuit, wherein inputs of the second set of multiplexers are selected for output as a function of the data signals and the control signals, and wherein outputs of the second set of multiplexers are inputted to the pull-down circuit; and a driver block for receiving said modified control signals and generating one or more output data signals.
