Product details

Overview

74HCT164PW,118 from Nexperia is an 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register with TTL-compatible inputs, dual gated serial data inputs (DSA and DSB), asynchronous master reset (MR), and edge-triggered clock (CP) operating on LOW-to-HIGH transitions. It delivers Q0–Q7 parallel outputs, supports 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, operates from –40 °C to +125 °C, and is used in LED matrix drivers, GPIO expansion, and serial-to-parallel data conversion in industrial control panels.

For engineers reviewing the 74HCT164PW,118 datasheet, 74HCT164PW,118 pinout, 74HCT164PW,118 application, or 74HCT164PW,118 equivalent, this device is selected for robust serial data latching in noise-prone environments, where TTL-level input compatibility, guaranteed reset behavior, and TSSOP14 thermal performance are critical design requirements.

Technical Context

The 74HCT164PW,118 implements a synchronous 8-stage D-type flip-flop chain with gated serial input logic: either DSA or DSB acts as an active-HIGH enable for the other, enabling flexible data routing. Its asynchronous MR overrides all clocked operations, forcing Q0–Q7 LOW independently of CP state.

It uses standard CMOS silicon with TTL input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5 V–5.5 V), ensuring interoperability with legacy 5 V logic families. Propagation delay from CP to Qn is 17 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V, supporting up to 55 MHz maximum clock frequency under CL = 15 pF conditions.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
Logic Family 74HCT - TTL-compatible input thresholds, CMOS output drive, 5 V nominal operation
Supply Voltage Range 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across industrial 5 V rails with ±5 % tolerance
Operating Temperature –40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for extended-temperature industrial and automotive-adjacent applications
Propagation Delay (CP→Qn) 17 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF - Enables reliable timing in high-speed serial interface chains
Output Drive Strength ±4.0 mA (VOH/VOL) at VCC = 4.5 V - Sufficient to directly drive LEDs or feed CMOS/TTL inputs without buffering
Input Clamp Diodes Integrated - Allows safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors
Power Dissipation Capacitance 40 pF - Used to calculate dynamic power: PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N

Pinout & Package

TSSOP14 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT402-1); 14-lead, 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch; exposed pad not electrically connected.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1 (DSA) Serial data input A Gated by DSB: active only when DSB = HIGH; enables selective serial data routing
2 (DSB) Serial data input B Gated by DSA: active only when DSA = HIGH; provides dual-input flexibility for daisy-chaining or multiplexed streams
3–6, 10–13 (Q0–Q7) Parallel output terminals Q0 shifts first; Q7 is MSB; all outputs are buffered CMOS with rail-to-rail swing
7 (GND) Ground reference Primary return path for supply and signal currents; must be low-impedance for noise immunity
8 (CP) Clock input Edge-triggered on LOW-to-HIGH transition; no internal debouncing - external filtering required if noisy
9 (MR) Master reset Asynchronous, active-LOW; forces all Qn = LOW regardless of CP or data state
14 (VCC) Positive supply Must be decoupled locally (e.g., 100 nF ceramic) adjacent to pin to suppress switching noise

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Dual gated serial inputs DSA and DSB function as mutual enables - eliminates need for external AND gates in multi-source serial paths
Asynchronous master reset MR clears all 8 bits independently of clock timing - essential for deterministic startup and fault recovery
TTL-compatible input thresholds VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - ensures direct connection to 5 V microcontroller UART/GPIO without level shifters
Input clamp diodes Enable overvoltage-tolerant interfacing (e.g., 12 V control signals) using series current-limiting resistors
JEDEC-compliant packaging SOT402-1 (TSSOP14) meets MO-153 mechanical standards - compatible with automated SMT placement and reflow profiles

Applications

LED Display Driver Microcontroller GPIO Expander

Use Scenario: Driving 8-segment common-cathode LED displays in HVAC control panels with limited MCU I/O.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Serial-to-parallel converter that accepts UART-shifted data and presents static segment outputs synchronized to CP.

Use Value: Reduces MCU pin count by 7 (vs. direct drive), eliminates software bit-banging, and provides glitch-free output updates via MR-controlled initialization.

Use Scenario: Adding 8 digital outputs to an STM32F4-based PLC module where native GPIOs are exhausted.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Parallel output latch controlled by SPI MOSI/CLK, with MR tied to system reset for known initial state.

Use Value: Enables deterministic I/O expansion without firmware overhead; TTL inputs accept direct SPI levels; TSSOP14 footprint saves PCB area vs. SO14.

Industrial Serial Data Buffer Legacy Bus Interface Adapter

Use Scenario: Buffering RS-485-modulated serial telemetry before parallel distribution to analog monitoring circuits.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronizing asynchronous serial stream into aligned byte-wide parallel format for ADC/DAC control registers.

Use Value: Provides setup/hold time margin (tsu = 12 ns, th = +4 ns) against jittery bus clocks; MR ensures clean buffer reset after communication errors.

Use Scenario: Interfacing 8-bit parallel address/data buses from vintage 8051-based instrumentation to modern FPGA controllers.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-shifting and serialization bridge: parallel reads converted to serial packets for FPGA-side parsing.

Use Value: TTL input compatibility matches 8051 output specs; 125 °C rating supports operation near heat-generating analog sections; compact TSSOP eases retrofit into legacy board layouts.

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
74HC164PW,118 CMOS input thresholds (VIH = 3.15 V min @ VCC = 4.5 V); wider 2.0–6.0 V supply range Better suited for mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 3.3 V MCU driving 5 V peripherals) but requires level translation when interfacing to TTL sources Select when supply flexibility or ultra-low ICC (< 8 μA) at 25 °C is prioritized over TTL compatibility
SN74LV164APW 3.3 V optimized (1.65–5.5 V), lower CP→Qn delay (10 ns typ @ VCC = 3.3 V), LVCMOS inputs Designed for 3.3 V domains; lacks true TTL input compatibility; not rated for 125 °C operation Prefer for new 3.3 V designs requiring faster timing and lower power, where industrial temperature range is not mandatory

Compared with 74HC164PW,118 and SN74LV164APW, the 74HCT164PW,118 uniquely balances TTL input compatibility, extended temperature support, and TSSOP14 density - making it the optimal choice for upgrading legacy 5 V systems without redesigning level-shifting networks.

FAQ

Can 74HCT164PW,118 operate reliably at 3.3 V supply?

No - the 74HCT164PW,118 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its recommended conditions. At 3.3 V, VIH and VIL thresholds fall outside guaranteed switching margins, risking metastability or failure to recognize logic levels. For 3.3 V systems, use the pin-compatible 74LV164A or 74LVC164A instead.

What is the minimum pulse width required on the MR pin to ensure reliable reset?

The MR pin requires a minimum LOW pulse width of 10 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V, with 15 ns guaranteed across –40 °C to +125 °C. This ensures full propagation through all eight internal flip-flops. Shorter pulses may result in partial or failed reset, especially under worst-case voltage/temperature conditions.

How does the dual-input gating (DSA/DSB) affect data loading behavior?

Data enters only when one input is HIGH (enabling gate) and the other carries the data bit. If both DSA and DSB are HIGH, the input is indeterminate; if both are LOW, no data shifts. This allows hardware-selectable data source routing without external logic - for example, DSB = HIGH selects DSA as data path, while DSA = HIGH selects DSB.

Is the exposed thermal pad on the TSSOP14 package electrically connected?

No - the exposed pad on SOT402-1 (TSSOP14) is not electrically connected to any internal node. Per Nexperia documentation, it has no electrical or mechanical requirement to be soldered. If soldered, it must remain floating or be connected to GND to avoid unintended coupling or thermal stress.
