Abstract
A driver includes a first pre-driver having a first drive strength programming input and a first output, a first transistor having a first transistor control input coupled to the first output, and a second pre-driver having a second drive strength programming input and a second output. The driver also includes a second transistor having a second transistor control input coupled to the second output. The second transistor is coupled to the first transistor and to a driver output terminal. A circuit is coupled between the driver output terminal and the first drive strength programming input and between the driver output terminal and the second drive strength programming input.
