74VHC595M

Shift Registers Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74VHC595M is an 8-bit shift register with output latches belonging to the 74VHC logic family. It features a serial-to-serial/parallel counting sequence and utilizes CMOS technology within a single circuit configuration. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and provides 3-state outputs. It is housed in a SOIC-16 package suitable for surface mount installation. Propagation delays are specified at 16.5 ns and 10.2 ns, with an industrial operating temperature range from -40 C to +85 C.

Shift Registers Feature Summary

• Provides 8-bit serial input shifting capability with parallel output storage
• Features 3-state outputs for bus-oriented applications
• Operates within a wide voltage range compatible with standard logic levels

Shift Registers Applications

• General-purpose data storage and transfer in digital systems
• Cascading configurations for expanded I/O capabilities
• Interface circuits requiring serial-to-parallel conversion

Shift Registers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation as Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entity onsemi when sourcing. Confirm the SOIC-16 package type and RoHS compliance status against current datasheets. Ensure the part number suffix matches the required tape and reel or cut tape packaging format for your assembly process.

Shift Registers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-speed CMOS performance with low power consumption. The 74VHC series offers speed comparable to LS TTL while maintaining CMOS noise immunity. Verify that the 3-state output requirement aligns with the system bus architecture and that the voltage levels match the target logic family.

Shift Registers Part Context

This device is part of the broader 74VHC595 series of 8-bit shift registers. It shares functional compatibility with other industry-standard 8-bit shift registers but distinguishes itself through the specific electrical characteristics and manufacturing processes defined by the 74VHC logic family specifications.

Shift Registers Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the MM74HC595 and SN74HC595. These alternatives offer similar 8-bit shift register functionality with 3-state outputs. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution.
