ABSTRACT:
Circuits and methods of suppressing noise on a signal line are disclosed. A noise suppression pull-down circuit is coupled to a signal line which couples the output element of a first logic element to the input terminal of a second logic element. When the first logic element drives a logic low onto the signal line, the noise suppression pull-down circuit is activated to provide a weak pull-down on the signal line. When the first logic element drives a logic high onto the signal line, the noise suppression pull-down circuit is deactivated to prevent interference with the first logic element.
