Abstract
A drive circuit comprises an output terminal for connection to a signal line 1002. An inductor 1012 is coupled between the signal line 1002 and a reference voltage node 1010. A switch 1008 is coupled between the signal line 1002 and the reference voltage node 1010. When the switch 1008 is closed, the inductor 1012 is coupled between the reference voltage node 1010 and the signal line 1002. When the switch is open, the inductor 1012 is not coupled between the reference voltage node 1010 and the signal line 1002.
