Can a ttl chip drive a cmos chip without modification?

A TTL chip can drive a CMOS chip without modification if the CMOS chip is designed to do so. Many large scale CMOS chips, such as microprocessors, have LS (or equivalent) TTL IO pins, so you can drive them directly. In the absence of that, you can use a pull up resistor, but you need to look carefully at fan-in, fan-out, rise time, fall time, and power requirements, in order to assure proper operation. It is best to use chips that are designed for the application, such as TTL to CMOS buffers.
