ABSTRACT:
A two terminal line driver employing predistortion is disclosed, for driving data over a lossy transmission line such as a twisted pair cable at speeds on upwards of 10 Mbit/s. The driver is designed for voltage output operation wherein fullstep and halfstep information is actively encoded into a voltage level provided for at the output terminals. The driver provides a fullstep voltage spanning the supply rails and a halfstep voltage having a selectable controlled amplitude of a predetermined value. Fat bits resulting from the biphase encoding format are predistorted by dropping the amplitude to a predetermined value, equalizing the relative power content.
