SN74LS126AM - Quad Bus Buffer Gates with 3-State Outputs

The SN74LS126AM, manufactured by ON Semiconductor, is a high-performance integrated circuit designed to provide efficient bus buffering with three-state outputs. This device is part of the 74LS series, known for its low-power Schottky technology, which ensures minimal power consumption while delivering reliable high-speed operation.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: Quad Bus Buffer Gates
• Output Type: 3-State
• Number of Channels: 4
• Input Level: TTL Compatible
• Output Current: 24 mA
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.75V to 5.25V

• Package: SOIC-14 (Surface-Mount)

Product Description:

The SN74LS126AM features four independent buffer gates with 3-state outputs that are used to control the flow of data through a bus-oriented system. The 3-state outputs can exist in one of three conditions: logic high, logic low, or high impedance. The high impedance state is used to effectively "disconnect" the buffer from the bus, allowing for multiple devices to share the same bus without interference.

This device is particularly suitable for driving bus lines or buffer memory address registers due to its high fan-out and drive capabilities. Its fast propagation delay and setup times make it an excellent choice for high-speed applications. The TTL-compatible inputs allow for direct interfacing with other TTL logic families, making the SN74LS126AM a versatile component for digital systems.

Constructed with ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality, the SN74LS126AM comes in a compact SOIC-14 package, which is ideal for space-constrained applications. Its wide operating temperature range ensures performance in extreme environments, making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications as well as consumer electronics.
