The TTL output levels are driven b y a 75452 dual peripheral
driver, with open collector outputs, and a 220 o hm pull-up
to +5 volts.
The TTL data inputs drive 1TTL input, load
and a IK pull-up to +5 volts.
W hen the TTL inputs are not being used, they should be
left open or h eld high so as not to affect data input
from other sources.
The TTL Data Input line must b e left open and not held high
when the current loop inputs are used.

reverse voltage may be experienced,
circuits
(i.e., relays) are coupled to the data line, a
protective diode should be put across the line such that
any reverse voltage spikes will cause the diode to conduct
and thus protect the LED in the opto-isolator from too
large a reverse voltage.
The current loop output is switched by an isolated trans
istor through an opto-isolator and is provided with a
transient-shunting diode across the output transistor so
that it m ay be used to drive relays without risk of damage
to the output circuit.
