ABSTRACT:
A digital output buffer including a driver capable of driving an output signal up to a maximum drive level and a driver controller responsive to contention at the driver's output and operative to reduce the drive of the driver below the maximum drive level when contention is detected. The method for reducing contention at the output of a digital buffer includes the steps of sensing the desired output of a digital buffer, sensing the actual state at an output node of the digital buffer and reducing the output drive of the digital buffer when the desired output is in contention with the actual state at the output node.
