The 74AHC125PW,118 is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component that belongs to the 74HC series of logic devices. It is a quad buffer or line driver, specifically designed to work with digital signals. This IC is commonly used in various electronic applications, including digital communication systems, computer interfaces, and microcontroller circuits. Here are some key features of the 74AHC125PW,118:
1. Quad Buffer: The IC contains four independent buffer gates, allowing it to handle four different input signals simultaneously. Each buffer gate has a single input and a single output.
2. Non-Inverting Function: The 74AHC125PW,118 is a non-inverting buffer, meaning that the logical state of the input signal is replicated at the output without any inversion.
3. High-Speed Operation: This IC operates at high-speed, allowing it to handle signals with fast switching rates. It has a maximum propagation delay of 13 nanoseconds (ns), which denotes the time taken for the output to respond to a change in the input.
4. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The IC can operate within a wide voltage range, typically from 2.0V to 6.0V, thereby providing compatibility with various logic families and power supply levels
