ECL is the Unsaturated logic family and fastest of all the logic families.

ECL has shortest propagation delay because it is the fastest logic as compared to all others.

Because ecl does not enter into saturation. It always operates in linear region. Hence it takes less time to do transition from one state to anouther state. (ie. , from high to low or viceversa).

ECL, mostly Transistors operated in saturation mode, due to this transition delay from one logic state to another is easy (i.e high to low or low to high).

ECL doesn't go to saturation. So, it has the shortest delay.

Why not 74S? Schottky also not enter into the saturation region.
