ABSTRACT:
A method of controlling termination of current driven circuits that bidirectionally transmit and receive a current driven signal, has the step of transmitting the current driven signal from a first one of the current driven circuits and receiving the signal by a second one of at least one of the current driven circuits while connecting only a termination circuit on the receiver side and disconnecting the other termination circuits. Therefore, the method of controlling termination of current driven circuits carries out simple termination switching control to prevent a decrease in the impedance of the output stage of the current driven circuit and transmit the current driven signal at correct amplitude.
