High performance I/O circuits for fast memory devices such as Synchronous DRAMs were studied. For a TTL interface, the effect of capacitive loading must increase as I/O speed is increased, and signal termination is required for frequencies over 100 MHz. For this reason, industry-proposed alternative interface approaches such as GTL and CTT were investigated using experimental test devices. The results showed that open-drain type drivers have a problem ; as the frequency increases, the high-level output voltage becomes degraded. In contrast, a push-pull driver T-LVTTL (Terminated Low Voltage TTL), developed as an implementation of the CTT interface specification, was found to be suitable for high-speed data transfer. A high-speed bus driver circuit connecting an impedance element in series to the stub is proposed as an application of T-LVTTL. Simulated results showed that this scheme greatly improves the signal integrity of memory bus systems ; the operating frequency could very well be the highest among several schemes discussed as candidates for the post-LVTTL standard interface.
