Abstract

See full text

Method and circuitry for implementing an integrated differential termination resistance that is self-tracking. The invention employs a mechanism that automatically tracks variations on a number of circuit and signal parameters including input common-mode voltage, as well as varying device characteristics due to fluctuations in processing, power supply voltage and temperature. It then adjusts the resistance across the two differential input signals in a self-calibrating manner to obtain a substantially constant termination resistance for a given application.
