High-speed voltage clamp for unterminated transmission lines
Abstract:
A high-speed voltage clamping circuit includes p-type field effect transistor (PFET) biasing circuit, an n-type field effect transistor (NFET) biasing circuit, and a field effect transistor (FET) clamp circuit. The PFET biasing circuit is configured to generate a PFET biasing voltage. The NFET biasing circuit is configured to generate a NFET biasing voltage. The FET clamp circuit is in signal communication with the PFET biasing circuit and the NFET biasing circuit. The PFET biasing circuit controls operation of the clamping circuit in response to a voltage overshoot event and the NFET biasing circuit controls operation of the clamping circuit in response to a voltage undershoot event.
