A resistance of configurable termination circuitry located at an interface between a memory component and a processing device is adjusted. The configurable termination circuitry includes a plurality of transistors, a plurality of switches coupled to the plurality of transistors, and a plurality of resistors coupled to the plurality of switches. The resistance of the configurable termination circuitry is adjusted based on a mode of the configurable termination circuitry.

A supply voltage sensitivity of an output current of a bias current generator circuit is reduced. The bias current generator includes a plurality of transistors and a plurality of resistors coupled to the plurality of transistors. The supply voltage sensitivity of the output current of the bias current generator circuit is reduced by applying a second bias current generated by the bias current generator circuit to a first bias current generated by the bias current generator circuit.

Bias current generator circuitry

A method includes performing a duty-cycle correction. The method can include inputting a signal to a duty-cycle correction circuit. The method can further include transferring the signal through an alternating current-coupling (AC-coupling) component of the duty-cycle correction circuit. The method can further include transferring the signal through a feedback circuit, wherein the feedback circuit comprises a plurality of resistors. The method can further include outputting a signal that includes a corrected duty-cycle with a particular amount of duty-cycle distortion.

AC coupled duty-cycle correction

Signals sent to a memory component are received by circuitry included in the memory component. The circuitry comprises a comparator circuit to process the received signals. The circuitry further comprises a resistor-capacitor (RC) circuit coupled to the comparator circuit to increase bandwidth and reduce interference in the received signals processed by the comparator circuit.
