Abstract

See full text

A complementary metal oxide silicon (CMOS) data to emitter coupled logic (ECL) data translator system comprised of translator apparatus for receiving data signals from a CMOS circuit powered from a CMOS voltage power source, apparatus for powering an ECL circuit from the power source, a transmission line carrying output signals from the translator apparatus to the ECL circuit, having a predetermined characteristic, a load having the characteristic impedance connecting the transmission line to the power source, and the translator apparatus comprising apparatus for outputting a data signal on the transmission line which corresponds to the received data signals but having an amplitude compatible with the ECL circuit and referenced to a voltage of the power source.
