The N74F166N,602 is an IC (integrated circuit) component manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It is a 8-bit parallel-in/serial-out shift register with a synchronous parallel-load capability. Here are the key features of the N74F166N,602:
1. Shift Register: The N74F166N,602 is an 8-bit shift register, meaning it can store and shift data sequentially in an 8-bit format. This makes it suitable for applications requiring data transmission and manipulation.
2. Parallel-In / Serial-Out: The shift register has a parallel data input, where you can load 8 bits of data simultaneously in parallel. The data can then be shifted out serially through the serial output pin.
3. Synchronous Parallel Load: The N74F166N,602 offers a parallel-load capability. By asserting the Parallel Load (PL) input, the serial output will latch the parallel input, resulting in the immediate transfer of data from the parallel input to the internal shift register. This allows quick and synchronized loading of data.
4. Serial Data Input and Output: Alongside the parallel data input, the component has a serial data input pin for accepting data in a bit-by-bit serial format. It also provides a serial output pin to output the shifted data sequentially.
5. Clock Input: The shift register operates based on an external clock signal applied to the Clock (CLK) input pin
