Instructions for 74F164APC

1. Power Supply:

   • Connect the V_CC pin to a 5V power supply.
   • Connect the GND pin to ground.

2. Input Signals:

   • Serial Data Input (DS): Connect this pin to the data source.
   • Shift Clock (SHCP): Connect this pin to the clock signal that shifts data into the register.
   • Storage Clock (STCP): Connect this pin to the clock signal that transfers data from the shift register to the storage register.
   • Output Enable (OE): Connect this pin to control the output state. Active low (0V) enables the outputs; high (5V) disables them.

3. Output Signals:

   • Q0-Q7: These pins provide the parallel output of the data stored in the register.

4. Operation:

   • Shift Mode: When SHCP is high, data on the DS pin is shifted into the register on the falling edge of SHCP.
   • Storage Mode: When STCP is high, the data in the shift register is transferred to the storage register on the falling edge of STCP.
   • Output Control: The OE pin controls whether the outputs are active or not. Set OE to 0V to enable the outputs, and 5V to disable them.

5. Timing Considerations:

   • Ensure that the propagation delay time (t_pd) is considered when designing the timing of your circuit to avoid data corruption.

6. Handling:

   • The 74F164APC is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use proper ESD protection measures during handling and installation.

7. Mounting:

   • Ensure proper heat dissipation if operating at maximum power consumption. Use a heatsink if necessary.

8. Testing:

   • Test the device under typical operating conditions to ensure it meets the specified parameters.
