STPIC6C595MTR - STMicroelectronics

The STPIC6C595MTR is a high-quality power logic 8-bit shift register designed and manufactured by STMicroelectronics. This integrated circuit is part of the STPIC6C595 series, which is known for its robust performance and reliability. It is particularly suitable for applications that require the serial to parallel conversion of data and the driving of high-current loads.

Built with an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register that feeds an 8-bit D-type storage register, the STPIC6C595MTR features output latches and 8 DMOS transistor outputs. The device is capable of sinking high currents, making it an ideal choice for directly driving LEDs, relays, or other high-current loads without the need for additional power transistors. Each of the eight outputs can sink up to 100mA, allowing for a total package power dissipation of 1W.

The STPIC6C595MTR operates over a broad voltage range from 5.5V to 50V, providing great flexibility for various design requirements. It also offers enhanced system reliability through its open-load detection feature, which can be particularly useful in diagnostic applications. Furthermore, the device includes a thermal shutdown mechanism, ensuring protection against potential overheating.

With its shift register clock input (SRCK) and storage register clock input (RCK), the STPIC6C595MTR allows for easy cascading of multiple devices without the need for additional circuitry. Data is shifted on the rising edges of the SRCK, while the RCK is used to update the output latches.

The STPIC6C595MTR is available in a surface-mount SO-16 package, which is ideal for space-constrained applications. It is specified for operation from -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for industrial environments. Its robust design and advanced features ensure that this shift register can meet the needs of a wide range of applications, from simple LED drivers to complex industrial control systems.
