Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Serializers are provided. The serializer includes a first drive control signal generator and a second drive control signal generator. The first drive control signal generator amplifies a first input data signal in response to a first clock signal and a second clock signal to generate a first pull-up drive control signal and a first pull-down drive control signal. The second drive control signal generator amplifies a second input data signal in response to the second clock signal and a third clock signal to generate a second pull-up drive control signal and a second pull-down drive control signal.
First claim
