This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240097667 titled 'CODING FOR PULSE AMPLITUDE MODULATION WITH AN ODD NUMBER OF OUTPUT LEVELS

==Simplified Explanation==

The present disclosure describes embodiments of a driver circuit that includes impedance elements and inverter circuits for encoding data.

* The driver circuit consists of a first impedance element connected to a first inverter circuit and a second impedance element connected to the first impedance element and a second inverter circuit.
* The first and second inverter circuits are controlled to allow a first current with a specific value and direction to flow through the impedance elements for the first encoding, and a second current with a different value and direction for the second encoding.
* The first value of the current is similar to the second value, but the first direction is opposite to the second direction.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

the present disclosure describes embodiments of driver circuit. the driver circuit includes a first impedance element electrically coupled to a first inverter circuit and a second impedance element electrically coupled to the first impedance element and a second inverter circuit. for a first encoding using the driver circuit, the first inverter circuit and the second inverter circuit are controlled such that a first current flows through the first and second impedance elements, the first current having a first value and a first direction. for a second encoding using the driver circuit, the first inverter circuit and the second inverter circuit are controlled such that a second current flows through the first and second impedance elements, the second current having a second value and a second direction. the first value is substantially the same as the second value and the first direction is opposite to the second direction.
