摘要:
A write output driver with internal programmable pull-up resistive devices is disclosed. The write output driver provides an integrated output driver circuit configurable to provide near end transmission line termination. The output driver is configured to provide transmission of a high-speed signal with increased frequencies over prior output drivers. The output impedance of the output driver is programmable and maintained substantially constant, despite ambient fluctuations. An internal bias signal generator is provided to control the impedance of the output driver.

A voltage buffer and follower includes a single ended output, a source follower, and a current feedback loop. The current feedback loop is coupled to the source follower and to the single ended output. When two voltage followers are used in a differential configuration, the voltage followers can become part of a high bandwidth gain cell. The high bandwidth gain cell includes a first and a second source follower circuit that are coupled to the first and the second current feedback loops, respectively. The first and the second source follower circuits are further coupled to a first and a second current mirror circuit, respectively. The first and second current mirror circuits are coupled to a load, which is coupled to a common-mode feedback circuit. The common-mode feedback circuit controls a constant current source that sinks mirrored direct currents that flow through the first and the second current mirror circuits.

A method and apparatus for running an analog portion (162) of a read/write channel (108) from a highly regulated power supply (260). The apparatus includes an analog portion (162), a clock synthesizer (154), and a highly regulated power supply (260) connected to the analog portion (162) and the clock synthesizer (154). The analog portion (162) and the clock synthesizer (154) both comprise high voltage transistors which operate in a first voltage range and low voltage transistors which operate in a second voltage range, wherein the first voltage range is within the second voltage range. The highly regulated power supply (260) supplies power that is within the first voltage range to the analog portion (162) and the clock synthesizer (154). The method includes generating power that is within the first voltage range using the highly regulated power supply (260), and supplying the power to the analog portion (162) and the clock synthesizer (154).
