    • A redriver chip is inserted between a transmitter chip and a receiver chip and re-drives differential signals from the transmitter chip to the receiver chip. The redriver chip has switched output termination that switches to a high value to detect far-end termination at the receiver chip, and to a low value for signaling. An output detector detects when the receiver chip has termination to ground and enables switched input termination to provide termination to ground on the lines back to the transmitter chip so that the far-end termination on the receiver chip is mirrored back to the transmitter chip, hiding the redriver chip. An input signal detector detects when the transmitter chip begins signaling and enables an equalizer, limiter, pre-driver, and output stage to re-drive the signals to the receiver chip. The input signal detector also causes the switched output termination to switch to the low value termination for signaling.

    • A method and apparatus for low power transmission of digital data. A low power data transmission circuit includes a pass gate having parallel-connected n and p-channel CMOS transistors that transmit input data. To reduce power in a first embodiment, a circuit disables the parallel-connected p-channel pass gate transistor except when the input data is high (logical 1). The p-channel pass gate transistor is needed to pass logical 1's without degradation. In the first embodiment, the n-channel pass gate transistor is enabled to transmit the input data on every clock cycle. In a second embodiment, the circuit disables the parallel-connected n-channel pass gate transistor except when the input data is low (logical 0). The n-channel pass gate transistor is needed to pass logical 0's without degradation. In this embodiment, the p-channel pass gate transistor is enabled to transmit the input data on every clock cycle. These low power data transmission circuits achieve substantial power savings by avoiding unnecessary charging and discharging of the pass gate transistors' gate capacitance on every clock cycle.

    • Distortions of both amplitude and phase along a transmission line are compensated for by a trace canceller inserted between a transmitter and a receiver. The trace canceller has an equalizer that compensates for a trace length between the transmitter and the trace canceller. A variable gain amplifier between the equalizer and an output buffer has its gain controlled by an automatic gain control circuit that compares low-frequency swings of the input and output of the trace canceller. The gain of the variable gain amplifier is reduced to prevent the output buffer from saturating and clipping peak voltages on its output. Thus both the variable gain amplifier and the output buffer remain in the linear region. Training pulses from the transmitter are passed through the trace canceller without clipping of peak voltages, allowing the transmitter and receiver to adjust transmission parameters to best match the transmission line.

    • A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) for a phase-locked loop (PLL) has improved bandwidth and performance at lower frequency. A variable current source supplies a current to an internal oscillator-power node. The current varies with the VCO input voltage. The internal oscillator-power node drives the sources of p-channel transistors in inverter stages in the ring oscillator. The variable current causes the internal oscillator-power node's voltage to vary, which varies the output frequency. An active resistor is in parallel with the ring oscillator. The active resistor has a resistor and an n-channel transistor in series between the oscillator-power node and ground. The n-channel transistor has a fixed bias voltage on its gate and is non-linear. The non-linear effective resistance of the n-channel transistor improves overall linearity of the ring oscillator. The parallel effective resistance of the active resistor lowers overall effective resistance of the ring oscillator. Oscillator bandwidth at lower frequencies improves.

    • Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for generating a temperature independent current limit. The value of the temperature independent current limit may be determined based in part on an error signal representative of a difference between an actual output value and a desired output value of a power converter. When the error signal is below a lower threshold voltage, the temperature independent current limit may be set to a first value. When the error signal is above an upper threshold voltage, the temperature independent current limit may be set to a second, higher value. When the error signal is between the lower threshold voltage and the upper threshold voltage, the temperature independent current limit may change linearly with the error signal. The error signal may be adjusted to compensate for changes in the system caused by a change in temperature.
