[Collins] Interesting snippet on today's Collins

[WHITEHEADG at aol.com]

SUHL was Sylvania's trade name for their TTL family, which I believe,  If I 
remember correctly, stood for
"Sylvania Ultra Highspeed Logic". Collins used the surface mount flat pack  
form factor. All Collins digital
gear including the computer family were built with it. I'll bet you can  
find reference to it via a Google search
but I haven't done that yet.

George,  et al:

OK, I give up. What was SUHL? I worked with many logic families  through 
those years, including HTL (Motorola), but I will admit to ignorance  here.  I 
never ran across SUHL.

Signed, curious.
