摘要: A circuit includes a first power node having a first voltage level, and an output node. A driver transistor coupled between the first power and output nodes is turned on and off responsive to first and second input signal edge types, respectively. A driver transistor source is coupled with the first power node. A contending circuit includes a slew rate detection circuit that generates a feedback signal based on an output node signal, and a contending transistor between a driver transistor drain and a second voltage. A contending transistor gate receives a control signal based on the feedback signal. The second voltage has a level less than the first voltage level if the output node signal rises responsive to the first input signal edge type, and greater than the first voltage level if the output node signal falls responsive to the first input signal edge type.
