Working Principles

The SN74AHC541DGVR operates by receiving digital input signals on its input pins (A1-A7) and providing buffered output signals on its corresponding output pins. The non-inverting nature of the buffer ensures that the output signals maintain the same logic level as the input signals.

The IC also features an OE# (Output Enable) pin, which controls the 3-state outputs. When the OE# pin is low, the outputs are enabled and actively driven by the input signals. Conversely, when the OE# pin is high, the outputs are disabled and put into a high-impedance state.
