12-4 OPEN-COLLECTOR TTL
An open-collector TTL logic gate has an output stage which consists of a single transistor with its collector terminal unconnected. [See Figure 12-8(a).] The complete gate circuit is similar to that in Figure 12-7, with components Q3, R4, and D4 omitted. An external pull-up resistor Rc must be included, as illustrated in Figure 12-8(a), to provide a path for the transistor collector current.
Figure 12-8 Open-collector TTL gates have transistors with open-circuited collector terminals as their output stages. This permits gate output terminals to be connected together to function as an AND gate.
A tri-state TTL (or TSL) logic gate has a control input as well as the usual input and output terminals. Figure 12-9 shows the circuit arrangement and logic symbol for a TSL NAND gate. Note that the control input terminal goes to an inverter. The output of the inverter is connected to one emitter on transistor Q1 and to the base of Q3 via diode D1.
Figure 12-9 Tri-ste TTL (TSL) circuits have a third output state: in addition to being high or low, the output may be placed in a high-impedance state. This is accomplished by setting transistors Q3 and Q4 in an off condition.
The circuit speed is increased by reducing the resistance of the resistors and by including an additional emitter-follower transistor to drive one of the output transistors. (See the H00-H30 circuit diagram in the data sheet.) Because of the reduced resistor values, the supply current is approximately double that for standard TTL, resulting in an average per-gate power dissipation of 22.5 mW. The typical propagation delay time for 54H/74H TTL is 6ns.
This logic family employs Schottky transistors to further increase the circuit switching speed. A Schottky transistor is a bipolar transistor with a Schottky diode connected between its collector and base terminals, as illustrated in Figure 12-10(a). A Schottky diode has a junction of silicon and metal. Like other diodes, it is a one-way device, but its major characteristics are that it switches very fast and that its forward drop is typically 0.25 V. The presence of the Schottky diode prevents the transistor from going into saturation, and consequently the transistor switching speed is minimized.
Figure 12-10 A Schottky transistor is a bipolar transistor with a Schottky diode connected from base to collector. This prevents the transistor from saturating, and thus increases its switching speed.
