Abstract
A binary bidirectional trimming circuit is disclosed. The trimming circuit includes: a first resistor set having 4 resistors in parallel connected and a first fuse bridged two ends thereto provide one trimming step; a second resistor set having 2 resistors in series connected and a second fuse bridged two ends thereto provide eight trimming steps; a third resistor set having 2 resistors in parallel connected and a third fuse bridged two ends thereto provide two trimming steps; a fourth resistor set having 1 resistor and a fourth fuse bridged two ends thereto provide four trimming steps; a first loading resistor; and a second loading resistor. The first resistor set, second resistor set, first loading resistor, third resistor set, the fourth resistor set, and the second loading resistor are in series connected. The output terminal is located at the nodes of the third resistor set and the first loading resistor so that the trimming steps provided by the third resistor set and the fourth resistor set are opposite to that of the first resistor set and the second resistor set.
