74LS295BN

Overview

The 74LS295BN is a 4-bit shift register manufactured by Rochester Electronics, LLC. It operates on a 5V supply and features a 14-DIP package. The component supports serial-in/parallel-out and parallel-in/serial-out data transfer modes with gated outputs.

Feature Summary

• Supports bidirectional shifting capabilities for flexible data routing
• Provides parallel output access for simultaneous data retrieval
• Features gated output control to manage signal transmission timing

Applications

• Digital data storage in sequential logic circuits
• Serial-to-parallel conversion tasks
• Parallel-to-serial conversion operations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturing lot date code and RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier, as Rochester Electronics sources components from various original manufacturers. Confirm that the 14-DIP package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing the order to ensure mechanical compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4-bit capacity is sufficient for the design. Compare propagation delay specifications against system clock speeds to ensure timing margins are met. Ensure the TTL logic family voltage levels align with the rest of the circuit interface requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LS series of logic components, widely used in digital systems. Rochester Electronics provides these parts as a source for discontinued or hard-to-find semiconductors, ensuring supply continuity for legacy designs requiring standard shift register functionality.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible equivalents within the same logic family. Verify that any substitute maintains the 4-bit architecture and 14-pin DIP form factor to avoid redesigning the host board.
