Abstract: A transceiver circuit having a T-coil circuit, inductive termination, and an equalization circuit is disclosed. The transceiver includes a transmitter having an output coupled to a first node, and a receiver having an input coupled to the first node. A T-coil circuit is coupled between the first node and an input/output (I/O) node. The T-coil circuit includes first and second inductors coupled in series between the first node and the I/O node, the inductors being coupled at a second node. A termination circuit is coupled between the first node and a reference node, the termination circuit including a third inductor. The transceiver circuit also includes an equalization circuit configured to convey an equalization signal to the second node.
