Tuning high-side and low-side CMOS data-paths in CML-to-CMOS signal converter
Abstract:
Electronic circuitry and techniques are disclosed for controlling one or more timing parameters associated with a circuit that converts a signal of a first type to a signal of a second type. For example, the converter circuit may convert a differential digital logic signal, such as a current mode logic (CML) signal, to a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) signal. For example, apparatus for converting a first type of signal to a second type of signal comprises the following circuitry. First circuitry is configured for generating a first pair of CMOS signals in response to a differential digital logic signal, the first pair of CMOS signals comprising a first CMOS signal having a first polarity and a second CMOS signal having a second polarity. Second circuitry is configured for adjusting, with respect to the first pair of CMOS signals, a transition time of one of the first CMOS signal and the second CMOS signal relative to a transition time of another of the first CMOS signal and the second CMOS signal.
