74F164ASC IC REGISTER SER/PAR I/O 14SOIC

The 74F164ASC is an integrated circuit that functions as an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register. This IC is a member of the 74F family, known for its fast propagation delays and improved performance compared to standard TTL logic. Encased in a 14-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, the 74F164ASC is designed for surface-mount technology, allowing for compact and efficient circuit board designs. Its primary function is to convert serial data input into parallel data output, making it ideal for applications such as data acquisition systems, display drivers, and serial-to-parallel data conversion. The 74F164ASC features two serial data inputs (A and B), which are ANDed together internally. This allows for versatile data input options, including enabling or disabling data flow based on the state of the inputs.

The device operates on a standard 5V supply voltage and exhibits excellent noise immunity. The 8 parallel outputs (Q0-Q7) provide the converted data in a parallel format, enabling easy interfacing with other digital logic circuits. The 74F164ASC is edge-triggered, meaning that data is shifted on the rising edge of the clock signal. This ensures reliable data transfer and prevents race conditions. The IC also includes a direct clear input (CLR), which asynchronously resets all the outputs to a low state, providing a convenient way to initialize the register. The 74F164ASC is characterized by its high clock frequency and low propagation delays, making it suitable for high-speed data processing applications.

The SOIC package allows for dense circuit board layouts, saving valuable space and reducing overall system size. The IC’s robust design and reliable performance make it a popular choice for various digital logic applications. Its ease of use and availability contribute to its widespread adoption among engineers and hobbyists. The 74F164ASC is an essential component for digital designers seeking a high-performance, serial-to-parallel shift register in a compact package.
