ABSTRACT:
A terminator for a transmission line that consumes substantially zero power. According to a preferred embodiment, a four device latch is provided, coupled at one side of the latch to the transmission line by way of a resistance. The size of the devices on the side of the latch connected to the transmission line and the value of the resistance are selected such that the combined impedance of the resistance and the device impedance to ground is substantially the same as the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. A proper impedance termination is provided for steady state high and steady state low conditions, as well as during substantially all of a transition there between.
