 		 #175149 - "Buffer" can be used in several contexts
Responding to: ???'s previous message

"Buffer" can be used in several contexts, and the precise meaning will, obviously, depend upon the context!


OK, so now we know that it's an analogue signal buffer between the output of an amplifier, and the input of a filter:

Or is it for holding the signal for more processing time

There you are thinking of "buffer" in the sense often found in software - meaning a temporary data store.

It should be clear that analogue signal processing doesn't work like that!

Analogue amplifiers & filters don't require time to "compute" their outputs in the way that software does!
