SinkSink and source are respectively the termination or supply of current flow; the divergence of the current density[?] is negative and positive, respectively. More generally this can be applied for other vector fields than current density; for example, mass is a sink of gravitational field strength.A TTL (Transistor Transistor Logic)circuit will "sink" current when the circuit is a a logic "0" (grd) and "source" current at a logic "1" (+5vdc). [These terms are far more generally used than just in digital electronics. Indeed, they antedate digital electronics. They are used in thermodynamics, which originated in the 19th century.
