Abstract
A buffer circuit includes first and second inputs and first and second outputs. The buffer circuit is configurable to buffer a differential input signal received at the first and the second inputs to generate a differential output signal at the first and the second outputs in a current mode logic buffer mode based on a control signal. The buffer circuit is configurable to buffer the differential input signal to generate the differential output signal in an H-bridge buffer mode based on the control signal.
