How to buffer tri-state GPIO pin for higher source/sink current?
Edit: I am not looking for a circuit to drive LEDs. I am looking for a generic solution to buffer a tri-state GPIO. My mention below of the bi-color LEDs is only to explain why I need to maintain tri-...

What is the difference between a tristate buffer and a transmission gate?
Functionally, these two "blocks" seem to do the same thing: send input to output if enabled and present high impedance Z on the output if not. However, this answer seems to suggest a ...

can connecting a tristate buffer output to 0 or 1 make problem?
in this circuit the control line is connected to GND so the output is Z. is there any problem to connect the output line to 1 or 0?
if the control line turns to 1, what happen to the circuit?
what is ...

Converting 3.3V signal to 5V with tri-state
I need to buffer and tri-state a 3.3V 8 bit signal, and shift the output to 5V (when the buffer is not in tri-state).
I am using a CD54HC373 buffer and 2 BOB-12009 logic level converters, but I can't ...

Analog 3-state buffer where the input voltage equals the output voltage and is controlled by a digital control line
I'm looking for a device that can control an analog signal without interference. I need it to be controlled by a digital control line (0v - 5v). The input voltage (0v - 5v) should equal the output ...

3-state buffer mechanism
I read about the 3-state buffer. I do not precisely understand the working mechanism. It allows essentially to obtain a third state, that corresponding to the disconnection of the output from the ...

Understanding how a tristate buffer works (74LS241)
I'm trying to understand how the 74LS241 works. From what I read, if two input are high on a buffer, then the output will be high. For some reason, this isn't working on my circuit.
So here is ...

How do I implement a tri-state buffer for a vector in VHDL?
I want to implement a tri-state buffer for a input vector, triggered by an enable vector, where every bit of the enable vector enables the corresponding bit of the input vector.
Something like this ...

Interfacing tri-state logic across 3v3/5v. Do buffers mirror all three logic states?
(This is just learning/hobby stuff...)
I have a 5v (tri-state TTL, ZX Spectrum) bus and I want to interface some non-5v tolerant 3v3 chips to it.
I think I need buffers or transceivers for the level ...

In a tristate buffer which transition time should be larger
I was having a doubt related to tristate buffers. I know that a tristate buffer allows an output port to assume a high impedance state in addition to the 0 and 1 logic levels, effectively removing the ...

Making a bi-directional tri-state buffer using two normal tri-state buffers, is it possible?
I need to use a tri-state buffer on a I2C bus and I have lots of 74125 (uni-directional tri-state buffers), so I'm wondering if is possible to connect two buffers back-to-back to make a bi-directional ...
