Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods for partial bit de-emphasis are provided. An example apparatus includes an output driver and control circuit. The output driver includes a pull-up circuit including one or more pull-up legs, and a pull-down circuit including one or more pull-down legs. The control circuit may be coupled to the output driver and configured to receive an input signal having a first logical value and a second logical value, and in response to determining the logical transition has occurred from the second logic value to the first logic value, cause the pull-up circuit and pull-down circuit respectively to enter a first state for a duration of a first portion of a bit period and to enter a second state for a duration of a second portion of the bit period preceding the first portion.

Claim (Index 13):
A method comprising:\n receiving, at an output driver, a first signal having a first logical value; receiving, at the output driver, a second signal following the first signal, the second signal having a second logical value different from the first logical value; and driving, in response to receiving the second signal, an external terminal from a first voltage to a second voltage by way of a third voltage, wherein the third voltage is a de-emphasized first voltage based at least in part on a de-emphasis time.
