This document discusses different types of logic families used in digital electronics, including TTL, CMOS, and ECL. It provides information on what each acronym stands for and the typical voltage levels for logic 0 and 1 inputs. It also lists some key differences between TTL and CMOS logic families. The document also includes vocabulary terms and circuit diagrams to illustrate MOSFET, CMOS, and ECL logic technologies.

TTL (Transistor Transistor Logic) Integrated-circuit technology that
uses the bipolar transistor as the principal circuit element.
CMOS (Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Integrated-circuit
technology that uses the field-effect transistor as the principal circuit element.
ECL (Emitter Coupled Logic) Integrated-circuit technology that uses the
bipolar transistors configured as a differential amplifier. This eliminates
saturation and improves speed but uses more power than other families.

9. LOGIC LEVELS / NOISE MARGIN
• Voltage characteristic - defines logical 0
(LOW) or logical 1 (HIGH)
• Noise immunity (noise margin)- logic circuit’s
insensitivity or resistance to undesired
voltages called “noise.”
Input Output
2.0 - 5.5V
LOW GND - 0.8V
HIGH 2.4 - 5.5V (3.5V typical)
GND - 0.4V (0.1V typical)

12. OTHER DIGITAL IC SPECIFICATIONS
• Drive Capabilities- sometimes referred to as fan-in or
fan-out.
• Fan out- number of inputs of a logic family that can be
driven by a single output. The drive capability of
outputs.
• Fan in- the load an input places on an output.
• Propagation delay- has to do with the “speed” of the logic
element. Lower propagation delays mean higher speed
which is a desirable characteristic.
• Power Dissipation- generally, as propagation delays
decrease, power consumption and heat generation
increase. CMOS is noted for low power consumption.

13. MOS AND CMOS ICs
• MOS stands for metal-oxide semiconductor.
• PMOS, NMOS, and CMOS are three technologies used to
manufacture ICs.
• NMOS stands for negative-channel metal-oxide semiconductor.
NMOS ICs are faster than PMOS.
• PMOS stands for positive-channel metal-oxide semiconductor.
• CMOS stands for complementary metal-oxide semiconductor.
Both PMOS and NMOS devices are used it its manufacture.
• CMOS ICs are noted for exceptionally low power consumption.
• CMOS ICs were slower than bipolar digital ICs (such as TTL
devices).
• Transmission gates or bilateral switches are unique digital
devices created using CMOS technology.
