Abstract

See full text

One example discloses a signal driver circuit, including: an input configured to receive an input signal; an output configured to transmit an output signal; a low drop-out voltage regulator (LDO) having a regulated voltage output; a set of voltage-modulated amplifiers having a first input coupled to the regulated voltage output, and a second input configured to receive the input signal; wherein the voltage-modulated amplifier is configured to amplify the input signal and transmit an amplified input signal on the output of the signal driver circuit; a de-emphasis controller, including a set of de-emphasis levels; wherein the de-emphasis controller is configured to selectively switch-on a first subset of the set of voltage-modulated amplifiers and switch-off a second subset of the set of voltage-modulated amplifiers based on the de-emphasis levels.
