the load regulation, ripple, and noise specs weren't great, and ECL is
sensitive to the ripple and noise.
On the other hand, ECL does not suffer from the spikes, burps and
farts TTL tends to make.
Late model Cybers tend to have very little in the way of filtering,
simply because the ECL load is "nice".
400Hz 3-phase power also helps. That gives a ripple frequency of 2400Hz
in a fullwave "star" configuration, with only 13% ripple, no? The same
holds for early model Cybers (even before they were called "Cyber")
which used a different variety of logic.
