Method and apparatus for output driver calibration, and memory devices and system embodying same

Abstract

A method, system, and output driver calibration circuit determine calibration values for configuring adjustable impedance output drivers. The calibration circuit includes a pull-up calibration circuit configured to generate an averaged pull-up count signal for calibrating p-channel devices in the output driver with the averaged pull-up count signal being an average of a plurality of pull-up count signals. The calibration circuit further includes a pull-down calibration circuit configured to generate an averaged pull-down count signal for calibrating n-channel devices in the output driver with the averaged pull-down count signal being an average of a plurality of pull-down count signals.
