Abstract
A mono-cycle generating circuit includes a multiplexer, a pulse generating circuit, and a buffer circuit. The multiplexer receives data of a logical 1 or a logical 0, determines whether to generate a positive mono-cycle or a negative mono-cycle, based upon the data, and outputs clock signals varying in time based upon the data. The pulse generating circuit is coupled to the multiplexer, receives the clock signals and generates a first series of pulses including an up-pulse preceding a down-pulse, or a second series of pulses including a down-pulse preceding an up-pulse, in response to the clock signals received by the multiplexer. The buffer circuit is coupled to the pulse generating circuit and includes a switch circuit and a common mode buffer. The switch circuit generates the positive mono-cycle or the negative mono-cycle, based upon whether the first series of pulses is received from the pulse generating circuit or the second series of pulses is received from the pulse generating circuit. The common mode buffer circuit is coupled to the switching circuit and reduces noise generated by the switch circuit.
