Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus described herein make a multi-level PAM signal (PAM-N signal) at a transmitter using CMOS-based components. By forming the PAM-N signal at the transmitter, receivers do not have to recombine and/or realign multiple signals and only employs a single transmission line channel (or two transmission line channels in differential implementations) to convey the data stream to the receiver from the transmitter.
