ABSTRACT:
Described are high-speed parallel-to-serial converters. The converters include data combiners with differential current-steering circuits that respond to parallel data bits by producing complementary current signals representing a differential, serialized version of the parallel data bits. One embodiment includes inductive and resistive loads to equalize the gain over the frequency of interest to reduce data-deterministic jitter.
