Product Description
The 74LS125DR2 is a versatile quad buffer that features non-inverting 3-state outputs, which can be placed in a high-impedance state, effectively disconnecting the output from the rest of the circuit. This is particularly useful in bus-oriented systems where multiple outputs can share a common bus line without interference.
Each buffer has its own output enable input, which controls the state of the corresponding output. When the output enable input is high, the output is in a high-impedance state, regardless of the input signal. When the output enable input is low, the buffer's output actively reflects the input signal, providing a high drive capability suitable for heavy loads.
The 74LS125DR2 operates over a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and offers a high noise immunity characteristic of the LS logic family. Its propagation delay is minimized, ensuring fast response times for critical applications. The device comes in a space-saving SOIC-14 package, which is widely used in surface-mount technology (SMT), making it suitable for compact PCB designs.
With its robust design and ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality, the 74LS125DR2 is a reliable choice for systems requiring high-speed, low-power operation and the ability to drive multiple loads without signal degradation.
