Universal Bus Functions (477)

Products in the universal bus function family are component-level products used for handling or operating on a series of (usually 8 or more) parallel logic signals known as a bus. Functions performed include temporary storage of data to be transmitted or received, buffering to allow a device such as a microprocessor having a limited output current capacity to transmit data over long interconnects at high speed, rotation or shifting of bit order within the bus, and others.
