Description
6 Pieces 74HC595N Shift Registers for Counters 8-BIT IC Integrated Circuits
Product Features
- Family: 74HC
- Logic Circuit: Registered
- No of Functions: 1
- Nominal Supply Voltage: from 2 to 6 V
- Output Characteristics: 3-ST
- Number of Inputs: 1
The 74HC595N devices are high-speed CMOS Si-gate circuits and are pin compatible with low-power Schottky TTL (LSTTL). They are specified in accordance with JEDEC Standard No. 7A.
The 74HC595 is an 8-stage serial-in shift register with a storage register and 3-state outputs. The shift register and storage register have separate clocks. Data is shifted into the shift register on the positive transitions of the SH_CP input. Data in each register is transferred to the storage register on the positive transition of the ST_CP input.
Features :
- 8-serial bit inputs
- 8-bit parallel or serial output
- Storage register with 3-state outputs
- Shift register with direct clear
- 100 MHz (typical) clock frequency
- HBM EIA / JESD22-A114-A exceeds 2000 V
- MM EIA / JESD22 -A115-A exceeds 200 V
Applications:
- Data conversion from serial to parallel
- Remote control storage register

Tutorial: How to use IC 74HC595N (8-bit Shift Register)
The 74HC595N is an 8-bit shift register. Ideal for beginners and Arduino projects.
What you need
- Arduino
- LED connection
- USB cable
Steps
- Connect the 74HC595N pins to the Arduino.
- Configure pinMode() for data, clock, and latch.
- Write shiftOut() to send data to the register.
- Activate the register with digitalWrite().
- Repeat steps 2-3 to update the state.
Example code
void setup() {pinMode(7, OUTPUT); pinMode(10, OUTPUT); pinMode(11, OUTPUT);} void loop() {digitalWrite(10, HIGH); shiftOut(7, 11, MSBFIRST, 255); digitalWrite(10, LOW); delay(1000);}
Mini project
Create a sequential changing LED display.
Common mistakes
- Incorrect pin connection.
- Syntax error in shiftOut().
- Clock or latch not set correctly.
Recommended accessories
- LEDs of various colors
- Resistors to protect the LEDs
