Clock Buffers & Drivers are amplifying and shaping the input signals.
Clock buffers and drivers serve many purposes in digital systems, receiving input signals or timing due to channel mismatch, loss or skew distortion.
They play an important role in clock and timing circuits.
A clock buffer is an integrated circuit used to minimize the difference in delay between clocks arriving at multiple logic circuits in a printed circuit board system and to match (synchronize) the timing. When operating multiple logic circuits, it is necessary to synchronize the circuits.
Buffers are general-purpose clocking devices that are well suited for clock/signal distribution applications in a variety of areas, including personal computers, consumer devices, industrial systems, and networking equipment and communication systems that require high performance.
