The fun part about logic gates is that there are so many ways to make them, with each approach having its own advantages and disadvantages. Although these days transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is ...

A variety of logic-circuit techniques have been in use since the 1960s, when integrated logic first came into existence. In the beginning was Resistor-Transistor Logic (RTL). Then came ...

Description: Analysis and design of digital electronic circuits. Resistor logic; diode logic; direct coupled transistor logic; resistor-transistor logic (RTL); diode-transistor logic (ETL); transistor ...

Fig 1. A typical CMOS input circuit comprises a “P” and “N” transistor. One is fully “on” for logic high, and the other is “on” for a logic low. Fig 2. When a CMOS input pin is at ...

That's not a misprint. DTL stands for diode-transistor logic and it was popular in “930-series” logic devices. I used wire-wrap or point-to-point solder-connection breadboards. But they became a pain ...

Here’s a blast from the past as we reprint our news from NYC’s 1961 IRE show—the first integrated logic circuits in TO-5 and TO-18 cans are being announced.

The idea of an optical transistor — and the associated optical logic circuits that may follow — conjures images of light controlling light in some sparkling, transparent computer.

This clock, along with a few capacitors and a pair of diodes, give this single transistor the ability to store a single bit of information, just like any other flip-flop.
