Abstract

A system may include a first inverter configured to invert a first data signal and a second inverter configured to invert a second data signal. A pull-up element may be coupled to an output of the first inverter on a first terminal and a power source on a second terminal, wherein the power source is also coupled to a pull-up element of a main output buffer. A pull-down element may be coupled to an output of the second inverter on a first terminal and a ground on a second terminal, wherein the ground is also coupled to a pull-down element of the main output buffer.
