ECL Logic Manufacturers - "Emitter Coupled Logic"

ECL is a form of Current Mode Logic [CML] that uses a pair of transistors coupled by their Emitters.
The transistors are operated in the non-saturated mode, so are faster than TTL devices.
Note that the ECL logic families do not offer the same number of devices that TTL or CMOS families do.

There are two main ECL families;
The normal 10k group and the 100k group which is temperature compensated.
Some companies also offer either group in the faster ECLinPC family which are faster versions.

Vcc levels; ECL: -5.2v, PECL: +5.0v, LVPECL: +3.3v
Normally ECL uses -5.2 volts for Vee, and 0 volts for Vcc.
