ABSTRACT:
A logic driver having control circuitry for receiving an input bistate data bit and providing power at an output at first and second predetermined voltage levels when an input bistate data bit is respectively of first and second states. Sensing circuitry is coupled to the control circuitry for detecting the level of current at the output and providing a corresponding current level indication. The driver further includes overcurrent circuitry, responsive to the current level indication, for generating an overcurrent command when the output current exceeds a predetermined level. The control circuitry is responsive to the overcurrent command for disabling the output of power at the corresponding predetermined voltage level at the output.
