The MC74ACT125DG: Each of the four elements handles one bit, with 3-state outputs that let you disable the bus when the output-enable pin is driven high. Output drive is symmetrical — 24mA source and 24mA sink — enough to drive a 5V CMOS input or a small LED through a series resistor without a separate buffer stage. The 14-SOIC footprint is common across many 74ACT logic parts, so board layout for this buffer can reuse an existing pattern.
