Using a function generator as a clock source to drive several ICs (CD4000 CMOS series & 74 TTL)

I am building a circuit that uses a 4 MHz reference carrier. The used ICs are basically XOR 7486 and NOT 7404, CD4013 flip-flop, etc. I have a function generator which is capable of providing up to 5 ...

Why do TTL pulse generators generate an asymmetrical square wave (unlike CMOS)?

I've read that the asymmetrical (about 1/3 mark-to-space) output waveform is due to input gate characteristics of a TTL inverter, but I want to know more about which characteristics of the TTL input ...
