Hi, I have been using an GW Instek SFG-2110 and find that the TTL output has a fast rise time. It is about 2 ns and this could be useful for oscilloscope bandwidth measurements for instruments of less than 100 MHz. The TTL option seems to be missing on more expensive function generators. Any thoughts?

Working on a FPGA project and we need perhaps 30 level shifter gates. Anyone work with 3.6 to 5.0 volt interfaces that can recommend any single part over the rest before I spend a few hours digging through Digi/Mouser/Newark's inventory? In some cases we can get away with resistors, but there is a bit of TTL level drivers needed. Thanks! John :-#)# -- (Please post followups or...

I am still working with a friend on a TTL level replacement for some chips on a pinball board and we have a nice FPGA (MAX 10 based) but it wants (of course) 3.3V I/O. I was thinking that SN74CBT16211C (24 x IO level shifter) and a TVS arrays like the D3V3X8U9LP3810-7 with a low Ohm (1 - 10R) Flame-Proof 1/8W or less resistor on the outside world interface would do for protection. ...

2N2369 is an old standby... kind of high current (200mA), like a '3904 sped up about 2-3 times. Not well specified though, I suppose because it's so old. I'm thinking in the 20V, 50mA range, fT maybe 0.5-1GHz. Like if you wanted to make old school RTL circuits that run as fast as 74S TTL. MPSH11 looks good, and '81 looks like its complement. I've used PN3563 before (complement PN425...

I have a fast 3.3 volt logic level that I'd like to split into inverted and non-inverted copies with minimum time skew. I think that TI once had a buffer with one input and complementary outputs, but I can't find a reference to that. It's probably slow and obsolete. A TTL to RS485 converter sort of works but would be slow. I could use two separate XOR gates, one as a buffer and the...

I have a project in mind using small Flash RAM and a cheap CPU to substitute for the old TTL level CMOS RAM used on arcade games. This has come up because the NVRAM that is currently being used is getting hard to find at prices under $7 to $9USD. Something like the M25P05-AVMN6P (512k or 64K x 8) or similar chips are $0.20 in single quantities. The size of CMOS RAM we are replacing ...

Just some thoughts that may help someone. To get started I would recommend the Nano. You just need it , a usb cable, and the IDE downloaded. The Nano has a usb chip on the module. No hassles about connecting. The pro mini does not have a usb chip, but is otherwise the same. To use it you need a usb to TTL adapter. I bought an adapter with a FDTI232 chip and could not get
