Quad buffer with a fast edge — what the 130 V/µs slew rate buys you
The Texas Instruments THS7374IPWR packs four independent voltage-follower buffers into a single 14-TSSOP, each capable of 90 mA output drive with a 130 V/µs slew rate. That slew rate is unusually high for a 9.5 MHz -3 dB bandwidth part — it means the output stage can swing large-signal steps (like composite video sync pulses or fast sensor readout edges) without slewing into distortion.
Supply flexibility and package density
The supply range spans 2.85 V to 5.5 V, covering the two most common mixed-signal rails without needing a separate regulator. Four buffers in the 4.40 mm-wide TSSOP footprint replace four single-channel SOIC-8 devices, cutting board area roughly in half. Each channel draws a quiescent 10 mA total for the whole IC, so the thermal budget at 5 V with all outputs loaded to 90 mA stays manageable in free air — no heatsink needed for typical video-line driving.
