Shift Register Pinout. The 74hc595 shift register is commonly used with microcontrollers or microprocessors to expand the gipo functionalities. Pins 1 7 15.
Pins 1 7 15. Parallel in parallel out serial in serial out. This is where you connect your 8 outputs.
The ic is made up of almost 77 gates which has a little complex circuit design.
It has a wide operating voltage from 2v to 6v. Connect pin8 to ground and pin16 to 5v voltage supply. It is used in communications and to convert multiple input ports to serial data. Sipo or piso shift registers.
