Output slew-rate controlled interface and method for controlling the output slew-rate of an interface

Abstract

An output slew-rate controlled interface is provided. The output slew-rate controlled interface includes: a standard slew-rate range generating circuit, for generating at least one standard signal defining a standard slew-rate range; a slew-rate comparing circuit, coupled to the standard slew-rate range generating circuit and a load circuit coupled to the interface, for comparing a response slew-rate of a response signal from the load circuit with the standard slew-rate range and producing a comparison result; and an outputting circuit, coupled to the slew-rate comparing circuit, for adjusting an output slew-rate of an output signal according to the comparison result and outputting the output signal to the load circuit.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
