  • Reducing Pin Count When the Digital Output is to be Provided in Differential or Single-ended Form
    Publication number: 20070182456
    Abstract: An integrated circuit provides digital output signals in either single-ended or differential form on a shared set of pins. A control circuit generates signals to ensure that when one form (single-ended or differential) of outputs are being provided, outputs in the other form are disabled. Outputs in differential form may be provided at twice the frequency as compared to the outputs in single-ended form. As a result the same number of pins can be supported for both single-ended and differential outputs for a desired data throughput, and the pin count of the integrated circuit is reduced.

  • Generating a waveform having one signal level periodically and different signal levels in other durations
    Patent number: 6906563
    Abstract: Generating a waveform having one signal level periodically and different signal levels in other durations. Two input signals are received, one having a desired constant level and another having desired signal levels. The desired output waveform is generated by selecting one of the two input signals. As a result, the output waveform may be generated to have (transitions) with high frequency even if the signal levels between adjacent portions are substantially different. Such waveforms are useful to test CDS (correlated double sampling) samplers.
