Transmitter circuitry with N-type pull-up transistor and low output voltage swing

Abstract:

An apparatus is provided, where the apparatus includes a first transistor coupled between a supply node and an output node; a resistor and a second transistor coupled in series between the output node and a ground terminal; a circuitry to receive data, and to output a first control signal and a second control signal to respectively control the first transistor and the second transistor, wherein an output signal at the output node is indicative of the data, and wherein the first transistor is a N-type transistor.
