Shift Registers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix MX against official datasheets to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure design compatibility with the 2 V to 5.5 V operating voltage range. Check for end-of-life notices or obsolescence warnings directly from onsemi channels before finalizing procurement plans.

Shift Registers Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8-bit serial-to-parallel shift register is required within the 74VHC logic family constraints. It is appropriate for designs needing gated serial inputs and push-pull outputs. Consider the SOIC-14 package dimensions for PCB layout. Verify that the operating temperature range meets system requirements. Compare against other 74HC or 74VHC variants if different pin counts or electrical characteristics are needed.

Shift Registers Part Context

This part belongs to the 74VHC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices manufactured by onsemi. The 74VHC164 variant specifically implements an 8-bit shift register function. It shares functional similarities with other 74HC164 parts but offers improved speed performance typical of the VHC family.
