Patent 7856570 was granted and assigned to NetLogic Microsystems on December, 2010 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A method and system for shaping an electronic pulse with a two-pulse response. An input node receives an initial electronic pulse and splits the electronic pulse into a first path and a second path. An output node combines together the first path and the second path into an output path, and transmits a shaped electronic pulse, matched to an output impedance. An Ethernet chip generates two pulses and transmits the pulses along a first path and a second path respectively. A power combiner/splitter combines together the pulses along the first path and the second path into an output path, and transmits a shaped electronic pulse, matched to an output impedance.
