The CD74HCT166M96 is a high-speed CMOS integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the HCT family. It is a 8-bit parallel-in/serial-out shift register with complementary outputs. This IC is commonly used in various applications, including data storage, data transfer, and control systems.
Key Features:
1. High-Speed Operation: The CD74HCT166M96 operates at a high-speed frequency, making it suitable for applications where rapid data transfer is crucial.
2. 8-bit Parallel-In/Serial-Out Shift Register: It provides eight parallel inputs (A0-A7) that can be simultaneously loaded into the register. The input data can then be shifted out serially using a clock signal.
3. Complementary Outputs: The outputs (Q0-Q7) are complementary, meaning that each output bit is available as both a true and complement signal, delivering flexibility in system design.
4. Asynchronous Reset: The IC has an asynchronous reset input (SRCLR), which allows for clearing the register independently of the clock signal, enabling quick reset functionality.
5. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The CD74HCT166M96's inputs are equipped with Schmitt-trigger circuitry, which ensures reliable operation even in the presence of noisy input signals.
6. Wide Operating Voltage Range: It can operate within a wide voltage range of 2V to 6V, making it compatible with various system configurations
