Abstract
An integrated circuit connectable to a signal transmission path of a storage device includes an impedance setting circuit including a plurality of switches, a detector configured to detect an input signal level, and a decoder. The decoder controls one or more switches of the impedance setting circuit based on the detected input signal level so as to match an impedance of the integrated circuit with an impedance of the signal transmission path.
