Abstract

A system for calibrating impedance of an input/output (I/O) buffer on a semiconductor die includes: the I/O buffer; a temperature sensor on the semiconductor die; and a supply sensor on the semiconductor die. The temperature sensor is configured to acquire temperature information for calibrating the I/O buffer. The supply sensor is configured to acquire voltage information for calibrating the I/O buffer. The I/O buffer comprises: a memory component coupled to the temperature and supply sensors and configured to store the acquired temperature or voltage information; a logic component coupled to the memory component; and a driver with driver legs. The driver is coupled to the logic component. The logic component is configured to generate driver control signals representing an on/off configuration for the driver legs of the driver based at least in part on the acquired temperature information or the acquired voltage information stored in the memory component.
