Product details
Overview
74HC597PW,112 from Nexperia is an 8-bit parallel-in/serial-out shift register with integrated input flip-flops, featuring dual positive-edge-triggered clocks (STCP for storage, SHCP for shifting), asynchronous master reset (MR), and parallel load (PL). It operates from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, supports -40 °C to +125 °C, and delivers 35 ns propagation delay at 6.0 V - used in industrial I/O expansion, LED matrix controllers, and microcontroller peripheral interfacing where synchronized data capture and serial streaming are required.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC597PW,112 datasheet, 74HC597PW,112 pinout, 74HC597PW,112 application, or 74HC597PW,112 equivalent, this device is selected for its dual-register architecture enabling glitch-free parallel data latching before serial shift, TTL-compatible variants (74HCT597PW), and robust ESD protection (HBM >2000 V) critical for factory-floor embedded control systems.
Technical Context
The 74HC597PW,112 implements a two-stage register pipeline: an 8-bit parallel-access input latch (D0–D7) clocked by STCP, feeding a serial-shift register clocked by SHCP. Both clocks are positive-edge-triggered and fully independent, allowing precise timing separation between data capture and shift operations.
Its functional behavior includes asynchronous MR (active LOW, clears shift register), synchronous PL (active LOW, loads stored data into shift register), and direct DS-to-Q serial path. Input clamp diodes support overvoltage-tolerant interfacing with current-limiting resistors - a key enabler for mixed-voltage system integration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level translation. |
| Propagation Delay (SHCP to Q) | 16 ns (typ) at VCC = 6.0 V - supports >24 MHz serial shift rates in high-speed I/O expansion. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor drives. |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - allows safe connection to signals exceeding VCC when used with external current-limiting resistors. |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - reduces need for external transient suppression in PCB layouts. |
| Power Dissipation Capacitance | 29 pF - enables accurate dynamic power estimation (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N) for thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP16 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT403-1); 16-pin, 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch - optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated SMT assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 8) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output currents; must be low-impedance connection. |
| Q (Pin 9) | Serial data output | MSB-first serial output of shift register; compatible with UART RX, SPI MOSI, or cascaded shift-in chains. |
| MR (Pin 10) | Asynchronous master reset | Active-LOW signal that forces Q = LOW regardless of clock state - used for deterministic initialization. |
| SHCP (Pin 11) | Shift register clock | Positive-edge-triggered clock advancing data through shift register; edge-synchronized with DS input. |
| STCP (Pin 12) | Storage register clock | Positive-edge-triggered clock capturing D0–D7 into input latches - decouples sampling from shifting. |
| PL (Pin 13) | Parallel load control | Active-LOW signal transferring latched D0–D7 data into shift register - enables burst-load + serial-stream operation. |
| DS (Pin 14) | Serial data input | Input for serially shifted data; feeds Q on next SHCP edge - supports daisy-chained configurations. |
| D0–D7 (Pins 15,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) | Parallel data inputs | 8-bit wide parallel bus accepting sampled sensor, GPIO, or display data prior to serial transmission. |
| VCC (Pin 16) | Supply voltage | Single 2.0–6.0 V rail powering both logic and output stages; bypass capacitor recommended at pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent clock domains | STCP and SHCP allow asynchronous data capture and synchronous serial output - eliminates metastability in multi-clock domain interfaces. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Clamp diodes enable safe interfacing with 12 V sensors or legacy 5 V buses using simple series resistors - no external translators needed. |
| Industrial temperature range | -40 °C to +125 °C operation confirmed per JEDEC JESD7A - suitable for motor control enclosures and outdoor metering hardware. |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 29 pF enables sub-mW active power at 1 MHz - extends battery life in portable diagnostic tools with periodic I/O polling. |
| Asynchronous reset + synchronous load | MR provides immediate Q clearance; PL enables deterministic data injection into shift register mid-operation - critical for error recovery in communication protocols. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | LED Matrix Display Controller |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Adding 8-bit digital input capability to a compact programmable logic controller via SPI-connected shift registers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Captures parallel status of limit switches/sensors on STCP edge, then streams bits serially to MCU via Q output synchronized to SHCP.

Use Scenario: Driving 64-LED grid using multiplexed column scanning with row data loaded in parallel and shifted out serially. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stores row pixel data (D0–D7) on STCP, then shifts it out bit-by-bit on Q to select columns during active row scan period. Use Value: Achieves flicker-free 1 kHz refresh with <35 ns propagation delay - eliminates visible ghosting in high-brightness signage applications. |
| Microcontroller Peripheral Interface | Automotive Body Control Module |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 8-channel analog sensor array (e.g., thermistors) to an ARM Cortex-M0+ with limited GPIOs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latches ADC-ready flags or digital outputs from sensors on STCP, then shifts status bits to MCU via Q on SHCP for polling.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit parallel-in/serial-out shift register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT597PW,112 | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min at VCC = 4.5 V); identical pinout and function. | Better interoperability with legacy 5 V TTL logic; slightly higher ICC at VCC = 5.5 V. | Select when interfacing with older microcontrollers or logic families lacking CMOS-level drive strength. |
| SN74HC165PWR | Single clock (CLK) instead of dual clocks; no separate STCP/SHCP; uses parallel load (PL) + clock enable (CE). | Lacks independent latching stage - requires precise timing coordination between parallel load and shift phases. | Choose only if board space is constrained and dual-clock timing separation is not required for system stability. |
Compared with 74HCT597PW,112, the original 74HC597PW,112 offers superior noise immunity in mixed-signal environments due to higher VIH/VIL thresholds, while SN74HC165PWR trades architectural flexibility for lower component count - making the 74HC597PW,112 optimal for deterministic, high-reliability I/O expansion.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74HC597PW,112?
The 74HC597PW,112 supports up to 35 MHz maximum SHCP frequency at VCC = 6.0 V and CL = 15 pF, verified per datasheet Table 7. At 4.5 V, fmax drops to 30 MHz. This rating assumes clean, monotonic clock edges with <13 ns transition time - exceeding this may cause setup/hold violations or metastability in the shift register stage.
Can the 74HC597PW,112 operate reliably at 3.3 V supply?
Yes - the 74HC597PW,112 is fully specified from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, including 3.3 V operation. At VCC = 3.3 V, VIH = 2.31 V (70% of VCC) and VOL = 0.26 V max at 4 mA load, ensuring robust compatibility with 3.3 V microcontrollers and FPGAs without level-shifting circuitry.
How does the PL (parallel load) input interact with the shift register?
PL is an active-LOW synchronous control: when PL = LOW and STCP receives a rising edge, the current contents of the input latches (D0–D7) are transferred into the shift register. This occurs independently of SHCP state - enabling data pre-loading before initiating serial output, which prevents spurious bits on Q during setup.
Is the 74HC597PW,112 pin-compatible with the 74HC165?
No - the 74HC597PW,112 (TSSOP16) has distinct pin assignments: STCP (12), SHCP (11), PL (13), and MR (10) differ from the 74HC165's CLK (2), CLK INH (15), SH/LD (1), and MR (15). Signal routing, PCB layout, and timing control logic are incompatible; direct substitution requires redesign.
