Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassH03K 017/16AbstractA buffer/driver is arranged in parallel between the data sending terminal and the data receiving terminal of a data transmission system. The SETUP time and HOLD time requirements of the data receiving terminal may be satisfied at the same time in accordance with the present invention. A low end, which has medium amount of time delay, buffer/driver may be used in this present invention to achieve a high performance of the data transmission which is usually possible in the past through the utilization of a high end buffer/driver, which has extremely small amount of time delay. | |
