74HC164 DIP 8-Bit Serial-In Parallel-Out Shift Register IC

Description

The 74HC164 is a high-speed CMOS 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register IC designed for digital data storage, conversion, and signal processing applications. This IC is widely used in microcontroller and microprocessor-based circuits for expanding the number of output pins while using minimal GPIOs. It operates on a voltage range of 2V to 6V, making it suitable for both TTL and CMOS logic systems.

The 74HC164 shift register features two data inputs (A and B), which can be used individually or tied together for single-wire serial data input. Data is shifted on the rising edge of the clock (CP) and presented as an 8-bit parallel output. It is a popular choice for LED matrix displays, digital counters, and general-purpose digital logic applications.
