  • Abstract
    A three-valued bipolar logic family utilizing the two conventional TTL logic states plus the high impedance state is described. The functions realized permit the use of existing synthesis algorithms. The noise immunity for such circuits is defined and calculated. A comparison of circuit complexity between the three-valued family and binary TTL is made for three- and two-valued functions with approximately the same number of possible inputs.
