TTL to MOS driver circuit

A TTL to MOS driver circuit comprising:

• input circuitry including an input buffer transistor coupled between a TTL power source and ground reference for generating buffer output signals in response to applied binary input signals;
• a phase splitter transistor coupled between a MOS power source and ground and to the emitter of said input buffer transistor, said phase splitter transistor being switched between conductive and nonconductive states in response to said buffer transistor output signals;
• an output stage including first and second output transistors in series between said MOS power source and ground and coupled to said phase splitter transistor, said first output transistor being enabled when said phase splitter transistor is conductive, said second output transistor being enabled when said phase splitter transistor is nonconductive, the interconnection of said first and second output transistors providing the output terminal of said driver;
• and
• current control circuitry responsive to a predetermined drop in voltage of said TTL power source for switching off all MOS power in the conductor to said phase splitter transistor and to said output stage, and for instantaneously grounding stored charges in said conductor.
