A method and apparatus for an equalized On-Die Termination (ODT) circuit uses timed switching to reduce receiver power consumption.

Method and apparatus for an equalized on-die termination (ODT) circuit

A communication system is disclosed. The communication system comprises a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes a plurality of channels; The communication system includes a plurality of receivers coupled to outputs of the plurality of channels; and a plurality of drivers coupled to inputs of the plurality of channels, wherein a slew rate for each of the plurality drivers is dependent on the transitions of its neighboring drivers. The communication system further includes a plurality of slew rate equalizers coupled to the plurality of drivers, wherein a slew rate driver coupled to a victim channel compensates for cross talk from its neighboring aggressor channels by adjusting its slew rate based upon a signal received from the slew rate equalizer of the victim channel.
