Abstract
A driver device includes a T-coil circuit and driver circuitries. The driver circuitries are averagely configured as a first driver set and a second driver set. The driver circuitries of the first driver set amplify one of a first data signal and a second data signal according to first portion of bits of an equalization signal, to generate a first output signal and to transmit the same to a first node of the T-coil circuit. The driver circuitries of the second driver set amplify one of the first data signal and the second data signal according to second portion of bits of the equalization signal, to generate a second output signal and to transmit the same to a second node of the T-coil circuit. The T-coil circuit further combines the first and second output signals as a third data signal, and transmits the third data signal to a channel.
