Buffer

Library: Base

Introduced: 2.0 Beta 1

Appearance:

Behavior

The buffer simply passes through to its right output whatever input it receives on the left side. The truth table for a one-bit buffer is the following.

`x`	out
0	0
1	1

Buffers are beyond question the most useless of the gate components provided in Logisim; its presence in the Gates library is just as much a matter of completeness (a component for each possible one-input truth table) as it is a matter of providing useful functionality. Still, it can be occassionally useful to ensure that values propagate in only one direction along a wire.

Pins

West edge (input, bit width according to Bit Width attribute): The input into the component.
East edge (output, bit width according to Bit Width attribute): The output, which always matches the input into the left side.

Attributes

Bit Width: The bit width of the component's inputs and outputs.

Poke Tool Behavior

None.

Text Tool Behavior

None.
