Abstract :
This paper describes a data output buffer for highspeed CMOS integrated memories with a high data output pin count. The buffer minimizes the switching noise induced on supply lines while achieving very fast output transitions by combining output presetting techniques together with adequate driving of the output pull-up and pull-down transistors. Tristate operation and zero static power consumption are also provided. The buffer was integrated in a 16-Mb EPROM device. It occupies 0.06 mm2 and ensures a better than 15 ns output transition time with a load capacitor of 100 pF
