I don't think there is a lot of value in putting the output resistor in the feedback loop for gate outputs, as we'd usually do that to increase DC accuracy at the receiving equipment. I would move your output resistor out of the feedback loop to take stability out of the conversation. You then have something pretty normal that will OR with similar outputs, up to some limit where all your 100ks (and whatever all the various input resistances) in parallel are too low a resistance to get your gates across. that's a lot, though. <div><div><br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature"><div dir="ltr">Cheers,<div>Chris </div></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Nov 24, 2024, at 12:42 PM, Paul Glass-Steel via Synth-diy <synth-diy@synth-diy.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">I'm hoping to improve on the typical transistor emitter-follower, wire-OR capable gate output buffer that many of my modules have inherited from CGS and NLC.
