Push-pull circuit with driving assisted by asymmetric charge sharing

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1840425
A push-pull circuit for an opto-electronic device includes: an output node; a pull-up circuit that, in operation, controls a falling edge rate of an input signal to the opto-electronic device while sharing charge with the output node; and a pull-down circuit that, in operation, controls a rising edge rate of the input signal to the opto-electronic device while sharing charge with the output node.
