Abstract

An apparatus includes an interface and a plurality of impedance branches. The interface may be configured to receive a data signal and a plurality of selection signals. The plurality of impedance branches may comprise a group of branches and a separated branch. The plurality of impedance branches may be configured to adjust an impedance value and a gain of a data path for the data signal in response to the selection signals. The group of branches may be controlled in response to the selection signals to select the impedance value and a first gain value in a first mode. The separated branch may replace one of the plurality of impedance branches in the group of branches in response to the selection signals to select a second gain value in a second mode.
