Abstract

See full text

An impedance calibration circuit includes a first detection unit configured to generate a first pull-up impedance detection signal according to a resistance value of an internal reference resistor, a second detection unit configured to generate a second pull-up impedance detection signal according to a resistance value of an external reference resistor coupled to an external reference resistor pad, a switching unit configured to select the first pull-up impedance detection signal or the second pull-up impedance detection signal according to the internal impedance calibration enable signal and output the selected pull-up impedance detection signal, and an impedance calibration signal generation unit configured to generate a plurality of impedance calibration signals according to an output of the switching unit.
