    摘要： A circuit for use in connection with tristate output buffers in order to provide concurrently for fast discharge of the output pulldown transistor base and at the same time for building in protection against reverse breakdown in the pulldown transistor. The innovation consists of providing a two discharge paths to ground for the base of the output pullup transistor. A low-capacitance path is activated only while the output buffer is in its active mode. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, this low discharge path consists of two CMOS transistors in series, one of which is controlled by the enable signal input E of the buffer circuit and the other by the data signal input V.sub.IN of the buffer circuit. The other path to ground is available whenever the data signal input V.sub.IN is low, regardless of whether the buffer is in its active or inactive mode. This other path provides discharge protection for the base of the pullup transistor for the buffer in its inactive mode, and has incorporated into it reverse breakdown protection in the form of voltage drop devices such as forward-biased diodes.

    摘要： A circuit to be used with bistate and tristate output buffers as a means of diverting from the output pulldown transistor Miller Current arising while the output buffer is powered down. Its purpose is to avoid loading the common bus to which the output buffer is attached, in particular under the circumstances where other output buffers on the bus are causing transitions to occur and the buffer of interest has been powered down. In its preferred embodiment the invention utilizes a MOS transistor coupled between the output pulldown transistor and the lower potential power rail of the output buffer. This MOS transistor is controlled by another MOS transistor coupled to output V.sub.OUT of the buffers. This driver transistor is controlled by the high potential power rail of the buffer and so turns on the Miller Current Discharge Transistor only when the buffer is powered down. The invention also encompasses a discharge transistor coupled to the data input V.sub.IN to ensure that the Miller Current Discharge Transistor never pulls the of the output pulldown when the buffer is in its active low state.
