    Abstract: A slew rate control circuit is disclosed. The slew rate control circuit includes an input port to receive an input signal, a transmitter to transmit the input signal to an output port and an impedance control circuit coupled between the transmitter and the output port. The impedance control circuit has an adjustable impedance that is configured to be adjusted during a rise and a fall of the input signal using a trim code and an one shot pulse.

    Abstract: A low voltage drop rectifier is provided. The rectifier includes a diode having a first terminal coupled at an input node and a second terminal coupled at an output node. A first transistor having a first current electrode is coupled at the input node and a second current electrode is coupled at the output node. A comparator having a first input is coupled at the input node, a second input is coupled at the output node, and an output is coupled to a control electrode of the first transistor. A bias circuit is coupled to the comparator circuit and is configured to generate a bias current in the comparator.

    Abstract: A wide band communications circuit buffer can include a pair of NPN bipolar transistor emitter followers deployed as a voltage buffer and disposed at inputs before and outputs after an equalization module, and a pair of diode connected NPN transistors deployed as a level shifter and disposed following the emitter followers before an output of the wide band driver to keep an output level at the output of the wide band buffer close to a desired level. Resistors connected between emitters and a VEE terminal can be used to further adjust the DC level. An LC tank filter can be provided between emitters of the voltage buffer components and the circuit's outputs to pass and boost high frequency signals provided to next stage components. The wide band buffer is, inter alia, appropriate for use in providing a DC level shift function as used in wired data communication systems circuitry.

    Abstract: A system including a device that is configured to communicate current sourcing capabilities to an external power source over a wired connection containing a plurality of wires. The device includes a power supply circuit configured to provide operating power for the device. A first pull-down circuit is configured to provide a pull-down for a particular wire of the wired connection using a first resistive element that is actively trimmed using the operating power. A second pull-down circuit includes at least one transistor that, in the absence of the operating power, is configured to enable a current path, in response to a gate voltage generated from a voltage on the particular wire, between the particular wire and a second resistive element.
