ABSTRACT:
Each one of two switching transistors, driven by complementary input signals, has its conduction path connected between a different one of two output terminals and a first point of potential. Connected between each output terminal and a second point of potential are the conduction paths of a load transistor responsive to the signal at the other output terminal. A source follower transistor is connected to each output terminal. When the switching transistor connected to one output terminal is being turned-OFF, the source follower connected to that output terminal is turned-ON to enhance the voltage response at that terminal and to thereby accelerate the speed of response of the circuit and minimize its power dissipation.
