    摘要: A high-speed bus interface with an adaptive swing driver. A high speed interface includes a transmitter and a receiver coupled via a bus. The transmitter has an adaptive swing driver and a voltage-regulating-module (VRM). The adaptive swing driver includes a post-driver and a pre-driver. The post-driver provides an adaptive swing output with a dedicated adaptive voltage power supply (VDDQ) and transition emphasis driving capacity with an internal logic voltage supply (VDD). The pre-driver provides the transition emphasis driving capacity with a pull-up and a pull-down signal path to the post-driver. The voltage-regulating-module is configured to supply signal to the adaptive swing driver. The receiver includes a comparator and a bit-error-rate detector. The comparator amplifies the adaptive swing output received from the transmitter via a bus, while the bit-error-rate detector diagnoses the amplified adaptive swing output received from the comparator.
