Abstract

The invention features an output driver device for an integrated circuit that includes an output device having an output terminal for an output signal to be output from the output driver device, an input terminal for an input signal to be input into the output driver device, and a control device that is signal-connected to the output device and the input terminal and is designed to transform the input signal into two mutually different control signals and to output the control signals via control signal outputs to the output device, where the output device configured to generate the output signal in a manner dependent on the control signals.
