Abstract
A line driver including a first driver circuit, a second driver circuit, and a first summing circuit. The first driver circuit generates a first component signal having a first polarity based on a first transmit signal, the bias signal, and the offset signal. The second driver circuit generates a second component signal having a second polarity based on a second transmit signal, the bias signal, and the offset signal. The first summing circuit sums the first and second component signals to generate a first differential signal. A first average current of the first differential signal for multiple symbols is greater than a second average current of a second differential signal for the symbols. The second differential signal is generated by summing a first biased signal and a second biased signal.
