ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a method and apparatus for providing slew rate control. The apparatus comprises a first circuit and a second circuit having an output terminal that is coupled to a first end of the first circuit. The second circuit receives a first input signal and a second input signal. The apparatus further comprises a third circuit having an output terminal that is coupled to the first end of the first circuit. The third circuit also receives the first input signal and the second input signal. The first circuit generates an output signal having a predetermined slew rate, where the output signal has a first state when the first and second input signals are in a first state.
