HIGH SPEED BUS TRANSCEIVER WITH FAULT TOLERANT DESIGN FOR HOT PLUGGABLE APPLICATIONS
Abstract:
A high-speed data transport system for use in computers, switches, microprocessors or the like includes a low impedance differential bus and a plurality of transceivers connected to the bus. Each of the transceivers is provided with a driver circuit which places data onto the bus and a receiver for accepting data from the bus. The driver includes a pseudo-differential current driving circuit arrangement which sinks current from only one side of the bus while the other side of the differential bus is undisturbed. The receiver includes a differential comparator biased to a preferred output voltage level.
