Abstract
A line driver capable of driving pulses on coaxial cables or laser driver packages has been designed to serve as the output of a 1.0625 Gbps Fibre Channel transmitter. This driver was designed in 0.5 mm CMOS technology and generates pulses of 1 ns width at PECL levels which are capable of driving 75 Ω, the characteristic impedance of a standard coaxial line.
