Abstract
An apparatus comprising a first circuit and a second circuit. The first circuit may be configured to generate a data input signal in response to a first control signal and a second control signal. The second circuit may be configured to (i) generate the first control signal and the second control signal and (ii) determine whether the first circuit is coupled to (a) a first logic level circuit when in a first state and (b) an impedance circuit and a second logic level circuit when in a second state.
