ABSTRACT:
A signaling circuit having reduced parasitic capacitance. The signaling circuit includes a plurality of driver circuits each having an output coupled to a first output node, and a plurality of select circuits each having an output coupled to a control input of a corresponding one of the driver circuits. Each of the select circuits includes a control input to receive a respective select signal and a plurality of data inputs to receive a plurality of data signals. Each of the select circuits is adapted to select, according to the respective select signal, one of the plurality of data signals to be output to the control input of the corresponding one of the driver circuits.
