Abstract

See full text

Circuitry is provided to individually configure each I/O of an integrated circuit to be compatible with a different LVTTL I/O standards. This can be done with only one I/O supply voltage, where that voltage is the highest of the I/O voltages needed in a particular application. The circuitry operates by regulating the output voltage of the I/O cell so that it is above the VOH and below the maximum VIH for the LVTTL standard for which it will comply with. Since each I/O cell is individually configurable, any I/O can drive out to any LVTTL specification.
