Abstract

In this paper, we designed 3.3-V line drivers for DSL (digital subscriber line) applications. The line driver consists of pre-amplifier, error amplifiers, output transistors, and quiescent current (I_Q) control circuits. A new method is proposed for the quiescent current control circuit in order to obtain high linearity performance. One driver is designed for ISDN U-interface and the other for HDSL applications. Both drivers are fabricated in a 0.35-μm n-well CMOS technology and THD (total harmonic distortion) better than -64 dB is achieved
