Abstract

A "dotted or" logic circuit comprising Current Controlled Gate (CCG) circuits is described. In accordance with the present invention, Schottky diodes are cross-coupled between the dotted CCG circuits. Specifically, a Schottky diode is connected between the base of the base-to-collector diode of one CCG circuit to the emitter of the input transistors of another CCG circuit and vice versa.
