A buffer, is a basic logic gate that passes its input, unchanged, to its output. It's behavior is the opposite of a NOT gate. The main purpose of a buffer is to simply amplify a weak signal. Q = A
A buffer has one input and one output. The output of a buffer always equals its input.

CMOS Implementation
A CMOS buffer gate with one input and one output can be realized as simply two inverters back to back - built out of just 4 gates.
The table on the right shows the states of the four transistors with the various inputs of A.

7407: Hex Buffer/Driver
The 7407 is a TTL chip with 14 pins. Two pins are used for VDD and GND, the other 12 pins are used for the 6 independent buffers. The 7407 chip implements the following expressions:
- Q1 = A1
- Q2 = A2
- Q3 = A3
- Q4 = A4
- Q5 = A5
- Q6 = A6
