Current-mode logic

Current-mode logic or CML is a way of building electronic circuits that uses the flow of electrical energy in small currents rather than the voltage level.

Imagine you have a toy car that runs on a battery. The battery provides energy to a small motor that makes the car move. In the same way, a current-mode logic circuit uses tiny electrical currents to do things like turn on a light, make a sound or show a picture on a screen.

To make a CML circuit, you need to connect together different parts called transistors that control the flow of current. They act like tiny gates that can allow or block the flow of energy.

The way these transistors are connected to each other is important. They need to be arranged in a specific way to make sure the currents flow smoothly and quickly without causing problems.

CML circuits are useful because they are very fast and efficient. They can perform complex tasks with very little energy, making them ideal for use in things like computer processors, telecommunications equipment, and other high-speed applications.

So, in short, CML is a type of electronic circuit that uses tiny currents to get things done, and it's really fast and efficient.
