Introduction — Logic IC
Logic Family : A collection of different IC’s that have similar
circuit characteristics
A circuit configuration or approach used to produce a type of
digital integrated circuit.
Consequence: different logic functions, when fabricated in the
form of an IC with the same approach, or in other words
belonging to the same logic family, will have identical electrical
characteristics.
the set of digital ICs belonging to the same logic family are
electrically compatible with each other

Noise Margin
Noise margin:The unwanted signals are referred to as noise
It is the limit of a noise voltage which may be present without impairing the
proper operation of the circuit.
Manufacturers specify voltage limits to represent the logical 0 or 1.
These limits are not the same at the input and output sides.
For example, a particular Gate A may output a voltage of 4.8V when it is
supposed to output a HIGH but, at its input side, it can take a voltage of 3V
as HIGH.
In this way, if any noise should corrupt the signal, there is some margin for
error.
Noise margin is the maximum noise added to an input signal of a digital circuit
that does not cause an undesirable change in the circuit output

The power dissipation parameter for a logic family is
specified in terms of power consumption per gate and is
the product of supply voltage VCC and supply current

Standard TTL.
Schhottky TTL.
As such all the families of TTL have three configuration for outputs.
Tristate Output.
TTL is slight improvement over the DTL.
The standard TTL gate was constructed with different resistor
values to produce gates with lower dissipation or higher speed.
The propagation delay of a saturated logic family depends on
largely two factors: Storage Time and RC time constants.
Reducing the ST decreases the PD.
Reducing resistor values in the circuit reduces the RC time
constants and decreases PD.
The trade off is a higher power dissipation because lower
resistances draw more current from the power supply.
Speed of gate is inversely proportional to PD.
In the low power TTL gate the resistor values are higher than in
the standard gate to reduce the Power dissipation, but PD is
increased.
In the high-speed TTL gate, resistor values are lowered to reduce
the PD, but the power dissipation is increased.
The Schottky TTL removes the storage time of transistor by
preventing them from going into saturation, which increases the
speed without increasing the power dissipation .
The low-power Schottky TTL scarifies some speed for reduced
power dissipation.
It is about equal to standard TTL in PD but has only one-fifth
the power dissipation.
It has the best speed-power product.
Open-collector TTL Gate
Modified circuit of DTL gate.
Multiple emitters in transistor Q1 are connected to the
inputs.
The voltage levels for the circuit are 0.2 V for the low
level and from 2.4 to 5 V for the high level.
The basic circuit is a NAND gate.
