Product details
Overview
74AHC595D,118 from Nexperia is an 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register with storage latch and 3-state outputs, used for serial-to-parallel data expansion in microcontroller I/O-constrained systems. It features separate shift clock (SHCP) and storage clock (STCP), asynchronous master reset (MR), and output enable (OE) control. Operates from 2.0 V to 5.5 V with CMOS input levels and supports cascading via Q7S serial output.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHC595D,118 datasheet, 74AHC595D,118 pinout, 74AHC595D,118 application, or 74AHC595D,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include propagation delay (≤10.5 ns at 5 V), wide supply range (2.0–5.5 V), overvoltage-tolerant inputs (to 5.5 V), -40 °C to +125 °C operation, and SO16 package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The device implements a two-stage pipeline: an 8-bit shift register accepting serial data on DS with LOW-to-HIGH SHCP transitions, and an independent 8-bit storage register loaded on LOW-to-HIGH STCP edges. Outputs Q0–Q7 reflect storage register contents only when OE is LOW; MR asynchronously clears the shift register but leaves the storage register unaffected.
Input tolerance to 5.5 V enables mixed-voltage interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V MCU driving 5 V peripherals). Schmitt-trigger inputs improve noise immunity, while balanced propagation delays ensure timing predictability across temperature (-40 °C to +125 °C) and supply (2.0–5.5 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 5.5 V - supports direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level shifters |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | ≤10.5 ns at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, CL = 50 pF - enables >90 MHz clock rates in high-speed data latching |
| Max Clock Frequency (fmax) | 170 MHz at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - allows rapid serial loading for real-time LED matrix or display refresh |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - permits safe connection to higher-voltage buses without external clamping |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
| Output Drive Strength | ±8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to directly drive LEDs or standard TTL loads without buffers |
| Power Dissipation | ≤75 μA ICC at VCC = 5.5 V - enables low-quiescent-power operation in battery-backed systems |
Pinout & Package
74AHC595D,118 is supplied in SO16 (SOT109-1) plastic small outline package: 16-pin, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm pitch, surface-mount, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15 | Q0–Q7 parallel outputs | Tri-state buffered outputs reflecting storage register state when OE = LOW |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference for all internal logic and output stages |
| 9 | Q7S serial output | Shift register stage 7 output for daisy-chaining multiple devices |
| 10 | MR (Master Reset) | Asynchronous active-LOW reset of shift register only; storage register unaffected |
| 11 | SHCP (Shift Clock) | LOW-to-HIGH edge shifts serial data (DS) into shift register |
| 12 | STCP (Storage Clock) | LOW-to-HIGH edge transfers shift register contents to storage register |
| 13 | OE (Output Enable) | Active-LOW control of Q0–Q7 output drivers; HIGH forces high-impedance state |
| 14 | DS (Data Serial input) | Serial data input synchronized to SHCP rising edge |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply rail; powers both logic core and output drivers |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Separate shift/storage clocks | Enables independent control of data shifting and output latching - critical for glitch-free display updates |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Accepts up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC - eliminates need for external voltage translators in mixed-supply systems |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Provides ≥0.5 V hysteresis on SHCP, STCP, MR, OE, and DS - rejects noise on long PCB traces or cables |
| 3-state parallel outputs | Q0–Q7 enter high-Z state when OE = HIGH - allows bus sharing and prevents contention in multi-device configurations |
| Wide temperature range | Specified from -40 °C to +125 °C - meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for automotive body electronics |
Applications
| LED Matrix Driver | Microcontroller I/O Expander |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 8×8 monochrome LED displays using SPI-controlled serial data. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts MCU's SPI output into parallel column/row signals; STCP synchronizes display update to avoid flicker. Use Value: Reduces required MCU GPIO count from 16 to 3 (DS, SHCP, STCP), while OE enables blanking during data load. | Use Scenario: Adding digital outputs to resource-limited ARM Cortex-M0+ designs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as peripheral output latch; shift register absorbs burst data, storage register holds stable outputs until next update. Use Value: Enables deterministic output timing - Q0–Q7 remain unchanged during serial loading, eliminating output glitches. |
| Industrial Sensor Interface | Remote Control Decoder Buffer |
Use Scenario: Consolidating status bits from 8 discrete sensors (e.g., limit switches, fault indicators) into one serial stream. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Parallel inputs sampled via MR/STCP; serial readout via Q7S to reduce wiring harness complexity. Use Value: Overvoltage-tolerant inputs accept 5 V sensor signals directly, even when VCC = 3.3 V - no external level-shifting components needed. | Use Scenario: Holding decoded IR remote command bytes for microcontroller polling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stores 8-bit command code in storage register; OE allows CPU to read data only when ready, avoiding bus contention. Use Value: Asynchronous MR ensures immediate reset on power-up or error recovery - guarantees known initial state before first command decode. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74AHCT595D,118 | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min); identical pinout and function | Better suited for legacy 5 V TTL systems where input thresholds must match 2.0 V logic-high | Select when interfacing with older 5 V microcontrollers or logic families requiring TTL-level recognition |
| SN74HC595PWR | TI part; same function but different AC specs - tpd = 25 ns max at 6 V, lower drive (±4 mA) | Higher propagation delay limits use in >25 MHz applications; lower drive requires buffering for LED loads | Choose only if TI supply chain preference outweighs timing and drive requirements |
Compared with 74AHCT595D,118, the 74AHC595D,118 offers superior noise immunity (Schmitt-trigger inputs) and wider VCC range (2.0–5.5 V vs. 4.5–5.5 V), while SN74HC595PWR trades speed and drive strength for broader vendor availability - making the Nexperia part optimal for new designs demanding robustness and flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74AHC595D,118?
The 74AHC595D,118 supports a maximum shift clock (SHCP) frequency of 170 MHz at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V and 110 MHz at -40 °C to +85 °C ambient. This rating assumes proper signal integrity, load capacitance ≤50 pF, and clean power supply decoupling. Real-world system clocking is typically limited by PCB layout and driver capability rather than the IC's intrinsic limit.
Can the 74AHC595D,118 be used with a 3.3 V microcontroller and 5 V peripherals?
Yes. Its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, allowing direct connection to 5 V peripheral signals while powered from 3.3 V. Outputs swing rail-to-rail (0 V to 3.3 V), so level-shifting is required for driving 5 V inputs - but input-side voltage translation is eliminated, simplifying interface design.
How does the master reset (MR) affect the storage register?
The MR pin resets only the 8-bit shift register to zero; it has no effect on the storage register or its parallel outputs (Q0–Q7). This allows safe initialization of incoming data flow without disrupting currently displayed or latched values - essential for systems requiring uninterrupted output during reconfiguration.
Is the SO16 package (SOT109-1) lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes. The 74AHC595D,118 in SO16 packaging conforms to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is lead-free, with matte tin (Sn) termination finish. The package uses halogen-free molding compound and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1), enabling standard reflow soldering without baking.
