Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a differential signal transmission device, and in particular to a low-power differential signal transmission device. Background technique [0002] In order to improve the sensitivity of electronic components and save power consumption, the use of differential input will enable the tiny amplitude to be amplified, and the information can be hidden in the amplitude by using the amplitude and transmitted as an information signal. Traditional differential signal transmitters can operate normally when the power supply voltage (VDD) is greater than 2.5V, but when the power supply voltage is less than 2V (for example, 1.8V is used in 0.18-μm process), due to the redundant space in the VDD direction (headroom ) is not enough to cause failure. This is due to the finite on-resistance of the PMOS transistor switch. The finite on-resistance causes cross-voltage across the transistors and consumes redundant space, so a higher power...
