Abstract: A signaling system having first and second sampling circuits and an output driver circuit. The first sampling circuit samples a first signal generated by the output driver circuit to determine whether the first signal exceeds a first threshold. The second sampling circuit samples the first signal to determine whether the first signal exceeds a second threshold. The drive strength of the output driver circuit is adjusted based, at least in part, on whether the first signal exceeds the first and second thresholds, and the second threshold is adjusted based, at least in part, on whether the first signal exceeds the second threshold.

Abstract: A receive circuit for receiving a signal transmitted via an electric signal conductor. A first sampling circuit generates a first sample value that indicates whether the signal exceeds a first threshold level, and a second sampling circuit generates a second sample value that indicates whether the signal exceeds a second threshold level. A first select circuit receives the first and second sample values from the first and second sampling circuits and selects, according to a previously generated sample value, either the first sample value or the second sample value to be output as a selected sample value.
