Good point Curt, and definitely not a whine. I had not really looked at the F520’s before. To some extent you are comparing apples to oranges.
For P=Q on the LS682’s the typical delay is 13 ns, max 25 ns (TI datasheet). For P=Q for the F520 its 5 and 5.5. However that’s a 74Fxx part, I cannot find a corresponding LS520 datasheet. The delay is more a function of the 74LS/74F part rather than the internal chip layout. A brief look on the web did not turn up 74F682’s or 74ALS682’s. If they exist, I bet they would be comparable to the 520. Where are you getting your F520’s from BTW. Going forward, since I really use the LS682 pin 1 (used for P>Q), we could have a jumper to allow either chip on the board.

I really dislike the '682, since you can't get any faster parts with this pinout that have the internal pullup. --curt, on a quest for a 12mhz s100 0WS z80. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "N8VEM-S100" group.
