1,181,467. Switching circuit. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. 28 Nov., 1968 [26 Dec., 1967], No. 56416/68. Heading H3T. A transistor 18 having an emitter resistor 19 has its emitter connected to one input of an amplifier 21, 22, whose output is connected back to the base of transistor 18 thereby regulating the voltage at its emitter, this voltage adopting one of two levels according to whether or not a voltage drop is inserted between transistor 18 emitter and transistor 22 base such as by current flow through a resistor 36 to a transistor 27. The transistor 27 and further transistor 29, 30 form a current switch in which coincidence of negative inputs to 29 and 30 cause the normally off transistor 27 to turn on, and to produce the voltage drop across the resistor 36 and an increase in current flow in transistor 18. This higher current, supplied to the emitters of the transistors of one column of a matrix, causes that transistor 12 to be selected to which a base voltage is applied, as to other transistors in its row, from a transistor 18a emitter 20a associated with a similar circuit arrangement to that of transistor 18. When transistor 27 is non-conductive, the current through either or both of transistors 29, 30 flows through resistor 26, and the voltage at transistor 18 emitter falls and its current flow is reduced to a very low but not zero value. This assists rapid turn-on. |
