Abstract
In some embodiments, an output driver can include a first driver circuit configured to operate with a first supply voltage and generate an output signal having an amplitude in a first range, and a second driver circuit configured to operate with a second supply voltage and generate an output signal having an amplitude in a second range. The output driver can further include a controller configured to operate any one of the first and second driver circuits, such that an output signal of the output driver has an amplitude in an overall range that includes the first and second ranges, and a switch circuit implemented to isolate one driver circuit from another driver circuit when the driver circuit is inactive and the other driver circuit is active.
