ABSTRACT:
An ECL-TTL level converting circuit comprises a first transistor having a collector connected to a ground line and an emitter connected to a negative voltage line through a constant current source, and a second transistor having a collector connected to a positive voltage line through a first resistor and an emitter commonly connected to the emitter of the first transistor. The base of one of the first and second transistors is connected to receive a reference voltage, and the base of the other of the first and second transistors is connected to receive an input signal. A third transistor is connected at its base to the collector of the second transistor and at its collector to the positive voltage line through a second resistor. An emitter of the third transistor is connected to the ground line through a third resistor and also connected to a base of a fourth transistor having an emitter connected to the ground line. A collector of the third transistor is connected to a base of a fifth transistor having a collector connected to the positive voltage line through a fourth resistor, and an emitter connected to a collector of the fourth transistor through a diode which is connected in a forward direction from the emitter of the fifth transistor to the collector of the fourth transistor. With this arrangement, an output signal can be obtained from the collector of the fourth transistor.
