  • Patent number: 11790977
    Abstract: The present invention provides a memory controller including a plurality of channels. A first channel of the plurality of channels includes a first transmitter, a first pull-up variable resistor and a first pull-down variable resistor, wherein the first transmitter is configured to generate a first data signal to a memory module, the first pull-up variable resistor is coupled between a supply voltage and an output terminal of the first transmitter, and the first pull-down variable resistor is coupled to the output terminal of the first transmitter. The control circuit is coupled to the plurality of channels, and is configured to control the first pull-up variable resistor and/or the first pull-down variable resistor according to a reference voltage used by the memory module.
