A smart dual‐mode IO driver and termination scheme is proposed and power is efficiently consumed for both low‐speed data transmission under 500 Mbit/s and high‐speed data transmission up to 3.4 Gbit/s. During high speed data transmission, the driver uses near‐ground signalling and pre‐emphasis weight can be controlled for inter symbol interference (ISI) mitigation. The measured eye shows 17.8% vertically and 19.5% horizontally with finite impulse response (FIR) tap control for 15.75″ FR4 channel. The proto‐type 2 channel single‐ended driver has been implemented in 45 nm CMOS process and occupies 0.022 mm 2 chip area.
