Abstract

An open drain driver circuit includes first and second NMOS driver transistors, a delay circuit, an OR gate and an AND gate. Each NMOS driver transistor has a drain coupled to an output terminal, a source coupled to a supply terminal, and a gate. The delay circuit has an input coupled to the input terminal and has an output. The OR gate has a first input coupled to the input terminal, a second input coupled to the output of the delay circuit and an output coupled to the gate of the first NMOS transistor. The AND gate has a first input coupled to the input terminal, a second input coupled to the output of the delay circuit and an output coupled to the gate of the second NMOS transistor.
