Abstract
A driver circuit includes a flipflop and a first plurality of series-coupled delay elements. The flipflop may be configured to encode a sequence of codewords in a multibit signal. The first plurality of series-coupled delay elements may be configured to propagate the multibit signal to a tuning circuit in the driver circuit during voltage ramping of a power supply used by the driver circuit. Each codeword in the sequence of codewords may be used to configure the tuning circuit during the voltage ramping of the power supply. The sequence of codewords may be configured to incrementally change impedance of the driver during the voltage ramping of the power supply.
