Abstract
A very high speed, low power integrated interface circuit using GaAs or InP technology is provided for converting small digital voltage swings to larger swings which are particularly suitable for analog control signals. The preferred embodiments employ solely depletion mode MESFETS and Schottky diodes in Schottky diode field effect logic (SDFL) configurations.
