  • Patent number: 7550993
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for glitch reduced circuits. As one example, a glitch reduced, variable width driver circuit is disclosed. Such circuits include a data output, and at least two transistors that each includes a gate, a first leg and a second leg. The gate of the first transistor is electrically coupled to a first combined control signal, and the gate of the second transistor is electrically coupled to a second combined control signal. The first leg of the first transistor and the first leg of the second transistor are electrically coupled to a power source, and the second leg of the first transistor and the second leg of the second transistor are electrically coupled to an output signal. The circuits further include a control circuit that combines a first control signal with the data output to create the first combined control signal, and combines a second control signal with the data output to create the second combined control signal.
