On the Dynamic Design of Non-Regenerative Transistor Circuits : Report No. 94

In this technical report, firstly, the transfer function of a non-regenerative, base-driven transistor circuit is derived by applying the linear equivalent circuit method. The results are experimentally verified. Secondly, the idea of the inverse-gain-bandwidth is introduced as the criterion of the dynamic design. Thirdly, the stability factor is explained. Finally, it is shown that a system constructed by various types of transistor switching circuits is reduced to a long train of unit chains formed by delay units and wave-shapers, and the maximum allowable number of delay units in a unit chain is discussed. The results given here are consistent with the design procedures for transistor switching circuits established in the Digital Computer Laboratory, i.e., the emitter-follower logical circuits associated with restorers and flip flops.
