    Abstract: An interfacing circuit for restoring voltage pulses to a desired fixed level. The circuit is particularly adapted to CMOS technology and includes features which result in rapid output rise and fall times, latching of the output voltage level, and isolation of the input following transition of the input voltage between its respective final levels. The circuit is also relatively insensitive to noise since it requires voltage transitions greater than the FET threshold levels to fully activate and switch the latching circuit means.

    Abstract: A read-mostly memory cell is disclosed comprising a floating gate avalanche injection field effect transistor storage device equipped with an erasing electrode. The memory portion of the erasable storage devices comprises a P channel FET having a floating polycrystalline silicon gate separated from an N-doped substrate by a layer of silicon dioxide. The erasing portion of the device comprises an erasing electrode separated from the polycrystalline silicon floating gate by a thermally grown layer of silicon dioxide having a leakage characteristic which is low in the presence of low electrical fields and high in the presence of high electrical fields. The floating gate is heavily doped with boron which also partially dopes the thermally grown silicon dioxide layer. The floating gate is charged negatively by avalanche breakdown of the FET drain while the erase gate is grounded to the substrate. The floating gate is discharged (erased) upon the application of a positive pulse to the erase electrode with respect to the semiconductor substrate causing electrodes on the charged floating gate to leak through the thermal oxide to the erasing electrode.

    Abstract: An over current protect circuit for a common bus driver having a complementary pair FET output includes a pair of AND circuits responsive to the gate-source and drain-source voltages for charging separate time integrating capacitors. If a threshold charge is reached a latch is triggered, which in turn disables the driver via a NAND gate and Inverter, and discharges the active capacitor. The latch is reset by dropping the driver enable line. As an alternative, high driver current may be sensed by placing a resistor in series with each output FET and charging the associated capacitor in response to a high current through the resistor.
