Abstract:
An averaged impedance calibration is obtained by utilizing two separately controlled resistive loads arranged in parallel and choosing two adjacent control codes to configure switch arrays to set the resistance of each of the separate resistive loads. The resistance of the resistive loads is averaged to provide greater accuracy. The two adjacent control codes are close to the target impedance value and typically one is slightly higher and one is slightly lower than the target impedance value.
