The 74AHC164 and 74AHCT164 are 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift registers and are classified as high speed silicon-gate CMOS devices. These devices are pin compatible with Low-power Schottky TTL ...

This Design Idea shows how a single microcontroller port can drive a lot of output lines through shift register. In this case we use the shift register with strobe control to achieve perfect output ...

Here’s an interesting article about reading data from shift registers using less than three pins. 74HC165 shift registers are a popular choice for adding inputs to a microcontroller. They have a ...

In a recent video our hacker [Electronic Wizard] introduces the 74HC595 shift register and explains how to use it to drive 7-segment displays. [Electronic Wizard] explains that understanding how to ...
