Explanation: Another way to speed up DTL other than adding a small “speed-up” capacitor across intermediate resister is to avoid saturating the switching transistor which can be done with a Baker clamp. The name Baker clamp is given at the name of Richard H. Baker, who described it in his 1956 technical report “Maximum Efficiency Switching Circuits”.
