 Transistor-transistor logic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL) is a class of digital circuits built from bipolar junction transistors (BJT), and resistors.
TTL became popular with electronic systems designers in 1962 after Texas Instruments introduced the 7400 series of ICs, which had a wide range of digital logic block functions.
Before the advent of VLSI devices, TTL integrated circuits were a standard method of construction for the processors of mini-computer and mainframe processors; such as the Digital Equipment Corporation VAX and Data General Eclipse, and for equipment such as machine tool numerical controls, printers, and video display terminals.

 Logic gate - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
Logic circuits are often classified in two groups: combinatorial logic, in which the outputs are continuous-time functions of the inputs, and sequential logic, in which the outputs depend on information stored by the circuit as well as on the inputs.
Logic gates are primarily electronically-controlled but can also be constructed from electromagnetic relays, electronic diodes, fluidics, optical or even mechanical elements.
The field-programmable nature of programmable logic devices such as FPGAs has removed the 'hard' property of hardware; it is now possible to change the logic design of a hardware system by reprogramming some of its components, thus allowing the features or function of a hardware implementation of a logic system to be changed.

 Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL)
The emitter of the Vcc-side transistor (whose collector is tied to Vcc) is connected to the collector of the GND-side transistor (whose emitter is grounded) by a diode.
The most basic TTL circuit has a single output transistor configured as an inverter with its emitter grounded and its collector tied to Vcc with a pull-up resistor, and with the output taken from its collector.
This is due to the fact that when the output transistor (T4 in Figure 1) is turned off, there is a path for the stored charge in its base to dissipate through, allowing it to reach cut-off faster than a DTL output transistor.

 Emitter coupled logic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A bias configuration supplies a constant voltage at the midrange of the low and high logic levels to the differential amplifier, so that the appropriate logical function of the input voltages will control the amplifier and the base of the output transistor (this output transistor is used in common emitter configuration?).
In electronics, emitter coupled logic (or ECL) is a design which uses transistors to steer current through gates which compute logical functions (as does every logic family).
By comparison, TTL and related families use transistors as digital switches (ECL is also digital), where transistors are either cut off or saturated, depending on the state of the circuit.

Resistance is proportional to the length of the resistor and to the material's resistivity, a physical property of the molecules that comprise the resistor, and inversely proportional to cross-sectional area.

The main distinguishing features of the basic TTL family is that they demand a power rail which is very close to +5V, and they use a relatively high amount of current to drive their logic levels (below 1V for a logical ‘0’ or ‘low’, and above about 3.5V for a logical ‘1’ or ‘high’).

Transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is a class of digital circuits built from bipolar junction transistors (BJT), diodes and resistors.

TTL was largely relegated to glue logic applications, such as fast bus drivers on a motherboard, for instance, once CMOS technology had developed to a point that made it possible to economically integrate much more complex circuits on a single chip than with TTL technology.

 Process for extracting logic from transistor and resistor data representations of circuits - Patent 5210699
The logic netlist is formed to serve as a logic simulation model having logic elements structured and patterned to follow the circuit representation at the transistor level, most commonly known as a netlist, which includes the resistors and the overall circuit interconnection.
The logic is extracted such that the logic schematic is a model that structurally patterns the circuit representation of the transistor netlist and is capable of interfacing conventional logic simulators.
The logical representation is extracted directly from the transistor netlist, which may be indicative of either ECL or CML circuitry, to generate automatically a corresponding logic representation of the physical implementation of the circuit.
