The 74LS164D is a high-performance, 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register designed by Texas Instruments. This integrated circuit is part of the 74LS logic family, which is well-known for its low-power Schottky technology, offering a balance between speed and power consumption. The 74LS164D is a versatile component ideal for a wide range of digital applications, including data transfer, control systems, and signal processing.

Key Features:

• Logic Family: 74LS (Low-power Schottky)
• Number of Bits: 8 bits
• Operating Voltage: 4.75V to 5.25V
• Package: SOIC-14 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit)
• Operating Temperature: 0°C to 70°C

Functional Description:

The 74LS164D shift register features two serial data inputs (A and B), eight parallel data outputs (Q0 to Q7), a clock input, and a clear input. The device allows serial input data to be shifted into the register on the rising edge of the clock signal. As the clock pulses, the data moves sequentially from one register to the next, providing parallel data output at each stage.

Applications:

The shift register is commonly used in applications that require the conversion of serial data to parallel form. This makes it suitable for:

• Serial-to-parallel data conversion
• Remote control holding registers
• Sequential timing
• Interface between mismatched data systems

Quality and Reliability:

Texas Instruments is known for its commitment to quality and reliability. The 74LS164D shift register is no exception, manufactured with high standards to ensure consistent performance and longevity in your electronic projects.
