The SN74LS674N is an IC component that belongs to the family of TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) devices. It is a 16-bit shift register with an input/output universal synchronous serial communication interface. Here are the key features of this IC component:
1. Input/Output Configuration: The IC has a total of 16 input/output pins (8 inputs and 8 outputs) that are used for serial data transfer. These pins can be configured as either input or output based on the desired mode of operation.
2. Serial Data Transfer: The SN74LS674N supports both serial-in and serial-out data transfer. It can function as a serial data transmitter or receiver depending on the mode configuration.
3. Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Interface: The IC provides a universal synchronous/asynchronous interface, enabling compatibility with a wide range of communication standards. It supports both synchronous and asynchronous data transmission modes.
4. Shift Register Functionality: The IC serves as a 16-bit shift register, allowing data to be shifted in and out in a serial manner. It has an internal storage capacity of 16 bits, making it suitable for various applications that require sequential data processing.
5. Parallel Loading Capability: The IC also includes a parallel load capability. This means that data can be loaded in parallel into the shift register, which can then be shifted out serially thereafter. This parallel-to-serial conversion feature expands the versatility of the device
