Overview

The DM74LS367AM is a Hex 3-STATE Buffer/Line Driver manufactured by Fairchild/ON Semiconductor. This device is part of the Low-power Schottky (LS) TTL logic family, known for its balance between speed and power consumption. It features six independent buffers with 3-STATE outputs, allowing them to be either high, low, or high-impedance. This makes it suitable for bus driving, memory addressing, and data multiplexing applications where multiple devices share a common bus.

Applications

• Bus driving
• Memory addressing
• Data multiplexing
• Line driving
• Data bus isolation
• Peripheral interfacing

Features

• Hex Buffer Configuration
• 3-STATE Outputs
• Low Power Consumption
• High Output Drive Capability
• TTL Compatible Inputs and Outputs
• Operating Voltage: 4.75V to 5.25V

Benefits

• Enables efficient bus driving with high output drive capability.
• Allows for easy multiplexing of data onto a common bus with 3-STATE outputs.
• Reduces power consumption in digital circuits.
• Interfaces easily with other TTL logic devices.
• Operates within the standard TTL voltage range.
• Provides bus isolation when the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

Additional Details

The DM74LS367AM contains six independent buffer/line drivers with 3-STATE outputs. The 'AM' suffix typically indicates a specific package type, often a ceramic DIP (Dual In-line Package) suitable for wider temperature ranges compared to plastic packages. These buffers are designed to drive high-capacitance loads, making them ideal for bus driving applications. The 3-STATE outputs allow multiple devices to share a common bus, as each output can be enabled or disabled. This feature is useful for multiplexing data from different sources or isolating parts of a system. The device operates from a 5V supply and is compatible with other TTL logic devices. The enable inputs control the output state, allowing the outputs to be in a high, low, or high-impedance state, providing flexibility in circuit design.
