The 54LS279LMQB is a quad set-reset latch IC, which means it consists of four individual set-reset latch circuits in one package. This IC is designed to store binary information with its two inputs - set (S) and reset (R) - and two outputs - Q and Q-bar. The 54LS279LMQB operates on a supply voltage of 5V and has a typical propagation delay of 15ns. It is compatible with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) standards and can be easily interfaced with other TTL devices. The 54LS279LMQB is housed in a 16-pin ceramic package and is ideal for use in various digital applications such as counters, registers, and flip-flops. Its low power consumption and compact design make it a popular choice among electronic engineers for building reliable and efficient digital circuits
