(...) Although I teach a digital electronics class based on the 74xx series, I'm certainly no expert, but here goes anyway... TTLs seem to have a very low ability to drive anything but minimal loads. Look up "drivers" in the TTL Data Book. They (...) (28 years ago, 24-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

But when I touch INIT to a high level TTL output, it doesn't (...) (28 years ago, 23-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
