General description

The 74HC595; 74HCT595 is an 8-bit serial-in/serial or parallel-out shift register with a

storage register and 3-state outputs. Both the shift and storage register have separate

clocks. The device features a serial input (DS) and a serial output (Q7S) to enable

cascading and an asynchronous reset MR input. A LOW on MR will reset the shift register.

Data is shifted on the LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the SHCP input. The data in the shift

register is transferred to the storage register on a LOW-to-HIGH transition of the STCP

input. If both clocks are connected together, the shift register will always be one clock

pulse ahead of the storage register. Data in the storage register appears at the output

whenever the output enable input (OE) is LOW. A HIGH on OE causes the outputs to

assume a high-impedance OFF-state. Operation of the OE input does not affect the state

of the registers. Inputs include clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting

resistors to interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.
