Abstract: A transmission line driver and a serial interface data transmission device including the same are provided. The transmission line driver includes a pre-driver configured to generate and output differential input data signals based on a serial transmission data signal, a differential amplifier configured to receive the differential input data signals and to output differential output data signals, and a common mode controller configured to drive the differential output data signals to a predetermined common mode voltage in an idle mode. Accordingly, power consumption can be reduced and a common mode specification can be supported.

Abstract: An equalizer may include an equalizer circuit and a controller. The equalizer circuit may generate an equalized signal based on a control code and input data. The controller may generate the control code based on a transition information signal having information on a number of data transitions in each clock period between multi-phase clocks.

Abstract: A method to increase drought resistance in plants is provided. The method comprises inhibiting or disabling inward-rectifying K+(K+in) channels in the stomatal guard cells of the plant.
