A fully differential CMOS line driver intended for ISDN U-interface applications is reported. Design details with emphasis on a novel high-swing output stage are presented. The output stage incorporates a class-B stage in parallel with the conventional class-H/B structure, allowing high linearity, high power efficiency, and well-controlled quiescent current. The prototype line driver exhibits total harmonic distortion of -83 dB for an output voltage swing of 7 V pp-diff. It maintains linearity on the order of 78 dB for nearly rail-to-rail output voltage swing of 9 Vpp-diff for signal frequencies of up to 40 kHz. The chip, built in a 0.9-μm technology, occupies an active area of 0.63 mm2. It operates from a single 5-V power supply and dissipates 20-mW quiescent power
