Fig. 9.5. Schottky clamped transistor and its associated symbol The Schottky series (labelled the 74S series) thus emerged as a high-speed replacement for the standard 74 series. The circuit diagram of a two-input NAND gate implemented with Schottky clamped transistors is shown in Fig. 9.6. ...
Notice that the transistors in this diagram are drawn so that current flows from top to bottom, the usual convention in circuit diagrams. In bipolar transistors, current flow is usually in the direction of the arrow forming the emitter symbol. This is why the pnp transistor is drawn with its...
Although an NPN based Darlington is shown in the diagram of the circuit symbol, it is also possible to have PNP based versions. Having both PNP and NPN Darlingtons enables complementary symmetry circuits to be developed.Darlington pair advantages & disadvantagesThe...
