The 74LS795 IC is a part of the 74XXYY IC series. The 74LS795 is a Buffer IC that is specifically designed to improve both the performance & density of 3-State memory address driver, clock drivers & bus oriented receivers & drivers. 74LS795 IC has a wide range of working voltage, a wide range of working conditions, and directly interfaces with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL. The output of the IC always comes in TTL which makes it easy to work with other TTL devices and microcontrollers. The IC 74LS795 is smaller in size and it has a much faster speed which makes it reliable in every kind of device.
What is a Buffer?
Buffers are generally used to increase the propagation delay of circuits by driving the large capacitive loads. A buffer is a basic logic gate that passes its input, unchanged, to its output. Its behavior is the opposite of a NOT gate. The main purpose of a buffer is to regenerate the input, usually using a strong high and a strong low.
