Glue logic

<h2 id="usage">Usage</h2>
<p>Typical functions of glue logic include:
</p>
<ul><li><a href="/facts/List_of_7400-series_integrated_circuits/WBoUynkg">Simple logic functions</a>.</li>
<li><a href="/facts/Address_decoder/VHp8fxNI">Address decoding circuitry</a> used with older processors like the <a href="/facts/MOS_Technology_6502/q9YLwkzm">MOS Technology 6502</a> or <a href="/facts/Zilog_Z80/Jeqe2h55">Zilog Z80</a> to divide up the processor's address space into RAM, ROM and I/O. Newer versions of these processors, such as the <a href="/facts/WDC_65816/65802/5Ce9Nh4P">WDC 65816</a> or the <a href="/facts/Zilog_eZ80/MmNCCFKN">Zilog eZ80</a>, may add features that enable glueless interfacing to external devices.</li>
<li>Buffers to protect outputs from overload, or protect sensitive inputs from <a href="/facts/Electrostatic_discharge/I55BBYfS">electrostatic discharge</a> damage.</li>
<li>Voltage level conversion, <i>e.g.</i>, when interfacing one logic family (<a href="/facts/CMOS/NJIWYgBl">CMOS</a>) to another (<a href="/facts/Transistor%E2%80%93transistor_logic/z4bvHotl">TTL</a>).</li></ul>
