Patent number: 9054578Abstract: A hybrid output driver includes a voltage mode main driver and a current mode emphasis driver that provides an adjustable differential output voltage swing. The current mode emphasis driver provides: push-pull swing control currents in response to a cursor data value, push-pull precursor currents in response to a precursor data value, and push-pull postcursor currents in response to a postcursor data value. In a normal operating mode, the swing control currents oppose voltages imposed by the voltage mode main driver on the differential output terminals. In a turbo operating mode, the swing control currents enhance voltages imposed by the voltage mode main driver on the differential output terminals.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2013Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: MoSys, Inc.Inventor: Kuo-Chiang Hsieh

Patent number: 5838175Abstract: A low distortion track-and-hold circuit in which a simple, four-transistor amplifier makes the circuit characteristics independent of the source impedance, and compensates for unequal voltage drops caused by mismatched diodes. An additional pair of bipolar transistors is used to eliminate errors caused by switching transients coupled through the diodes. In the track mode, the differential output voltage between two sampling capacitors tracks the differential input voltage of the circuit. At the end of the track time, this differential output voltage is equal to the differential input voltage. During the hold period, the sampling capacitors are isolated from the differential input voltage. The voltages controlling the switching diodes reverse symmetrically during the transition from track to hold, resulting in a cancellation of any feedthrough of the switching transients to the sampling capacitor. Beta and temperature compensation circuits are also included in the differential track-and-hold circuit.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 1997Date of Patent: November 17, 1998Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventor: Kuo-Chiang Hsieh
