ON Semiconductor MC74HC164AN 8-Bit Serial-Input/Parallel-Output Shift Register

The MC74HC164AN is a high-speed integrated circuit from ON Semiconductor, designed for optimal performance in digital systems. This 8-bit serial-input/parallel-output shift register is a versatile component that finds its application in a wide array of digital logic circuits where low power operation and high functionality are essential.

Constructed with silicon gate CMOS technology, the MC74HC164AN offers the benefits of high density, low power consumption, and minimal noise. This shift register is capable of operating with a two-phase clock and does not require a clear function, simplifying its use in digital systems.

The device features two serial data inputs (A and B), which can be used in unison for a fully parallel data load. It also boasts eight parallel outputs (Q0 to Q7), allowing for the simultaneous presentation of all 8 bits of data. The serial inputs are edge-triggered, responding to the rising edge of the clock input, and data is shifted on the positive-going transitions of the clock pulses.

With an operating voltage range of 2V to 6V, the MC74HC164AN is compatible with TTL levels, ensuring easy integration into existing systems. Its high noise immunity and low power dissipation make it a reliable choice for applications such as serial-to-parallel data conversion, sequence generation, and extendable shift register functions.

Available in a standard 14-pin DIP package, the MC74HC164AN is easy to mount and interface with other components on a printed circuit board. Its industry-standard pinout allows for drop-in replacement and design flexibility.

ON Semiconductor ensures that the MC74HC164AN meets stringent quality standards, providing designers with a robust and dependable component for their digital logic designs. Whether used in consumer electronics, automotive systems, or industrial controls, this shift register offers a compact, efficient solution for serial-to-parallel data processing needs.
