Product details
Overview
74HCT165PW,112 from Nexperia is an 8-bit parallel-in/serial-out shift register with TTL-compatible inputs, asynchronous parallel load (PL), synchronous serial shift (CP/CE), complementary Q7/Q7 outputs, and operation from 4.5 V to 5.5 V across –40 °C to +125 °C. It enables parallel data capture from microcontroller GPIO banks or sensor arrays followed by compact serial transmission over SPI or UART interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT165PW,112 datasheet, 74HCT165PW,112 pinout, 74HCT165PW,112 application, or 74HCT165PW,112 equivalent, this device serves as a low-power, temperature-stable interface for expanding digital I/O in industrial control panels, automotive body controllers, and embedded data acquisition systems where level-shifted input tolerance and deterministic timing are required.
Technical Context
The 74HCT165PW,112 implements a synchronous 8-stage shift register with dual-path output buffering: Q7 provides the MSB of the shifted-out data stream, while Q7 delivers its logical complement. Its asynchronous PL input allows immediate latching of parallel inputs D0–D7 without clock dependency, enabling precise sampling of external signals on demand.
Operation is governed by edge-triggered CP (LOW-to-HIGH) and active-low CE gating - when CE is HIGH, CP transitions are ignored, halting shift activity. Input clamping supports 15 V overvoltage tolerance, permitting direct interfacing with 5 V logic driving 3.3 V microcontrollers without external level-shifting components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V logic rails and stable operation under industrial supply ripple. |
| Input Logic Type | TTL-level - accepts 2.0 V minimum VIH and 0.8 V maximum VIL, enabling direct connection to legacy 5 V MCU peripherals. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 14 ns to 51 ns (VCC = 4.5 V) - guarantees sub-50 ns timing margin for 10 MHz serial clocking in real-time control loops. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and factory-floor industrial environments without derating. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±4.0 mA (VOH/VOL @ VCC = 4.5 V) - sufficient to drive multiple CMOS inputs or short PCB traces without fanout limitation. |
| Power Dissipation | Max 160 μA ICC (VCC = 6.0 V, –40 °C to +125 °C) - enables battery-powered or thermally constrained designs with minimal quiescent load. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for robust handling in manufacturing and field service. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP16 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT403-1); 16 leads; body width 4.4 mm; 0.65 mm pitch; exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PL) | Asynchronous parallel load input | Active-LOW signal that immediately captures D0–D7 into register stages, independent of clock - used for snapshot acquisition. |
| 2 (CP) | Clock input | LOW-to-HIGH edge-triggered; advances shift register only when CE = LOW - defines serial bit rate and synchronizes data movement. |
| 7 (Q7) | Serial output (MSB) | Provides the most significant bit of the 8-bit shift register after each CP edge - connects directly to MCU MISO or UART RX. |
| 9 (Q7) | Complementary serial output | Logical inverse of Q7 - enables differential signaling or noise-immune sampling in EMI-prone environments. |
| 10 (DS) | Serial data input | Accepts new bit during serial shift mode (PL = HIGH); sampled on CP rising edge when CE = LOW - feeds next stage during right-shift. |
| 11–14, 3–6 (D0–D7) | Parallel data inputs | Eight independent inputs accepting simultaneous 8-bit word; latched on PL falling edge - used for GPIO expansion or sensor bus readback. |
| 15 (CE) | Clock enable input | Active-LOW gate for CP - when HIGH, CP edges are ignored, freezing register state without requiring clock gating logic. |
| 16 (VCC) | Positive supply | Primary power rail; decoupling capacitor required within 5 mm to maintain switching noise immunity and timing integrity. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | Signal and power return path; must be low-impedance plane to minimize ground bounce during parallel load transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asynchronous parallel load | Enables zero-latency capture of 8-bit status registers (e.g., switch banks or ADC result latches) without waiting for clock alignment. |
| TTL-compatible inputs | Eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with 5 V sensors, encoders, or legacy controllers feeding 3.3 V MCUs. |
| Overvoltage tolerant inputs (15 V) | Permits direct connection to unregulated 12 V automotive lines or industrial 24 V I/O modules with internal clamping protection. |
| Complementary Q7/Q7 outputs | Supports balanced sampling or differential receiver interfaces, improving noise rejection in motor drive or CAN subsystem monitoring. |
| –40 °C to +125 °C operation | Validated for continuous use in engine control units, power inverters, and outdoor telecom equipment without thermal throttling. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Automotive Body Control Module |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC165PW,112 | CMOS-input version; VIH min = 3.15 V @ VCC = 4.5 V; higher noise margin but requires ≥3.15 V logic high. | Better suited for mixed-voltage systems where all upstream drivers meet HC thresholds; less tolerant of marginal 3.3 V logic highs. | Select when interfacing exclusively with 5 V CMOS sources or when maximizing noise immunity is critical. |
| SN74LV165APWR | TI 3.3 V optimized; operates 2.0–5.5 V; VIH min = 1.7 V @ VCC = 3.3 V; lower propagation delay (10 ns typ). | Preferred for 3.3 V native systems; lacks 15 V overvoltage tolerance and extended temperature rating (–40 °C to +105 °C only). | Choose for high-speed, low-voltage embedded designs where industrial temp range is not required and overvoltage protection is handled externally. |
Compared with 74HC165PW,112 and SN74LV165APWR, the 74HCT165PW,112 uniquely balances TTL-level compatibility, 125 °C operation, and 15 V input tolerance - making it the only option among the three qualified for under-hood automotive and harsh industrial deployments with legacy 5 V signal sources.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74HCT165PW,112?
The 74HCT165PW,112 supports up to 26 MHz maximum clock frequency at VCC = 4.5 V and –40 °C to +85 °C ambient, and 17 MHz at full –40 °C to +125 °C range. These values are measured with CL = 50 pF and reflect guaranteed timing margins per Nexperia's Rev. 8 datasheet, Table 7.
Can the 74HCT165PW,112 operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No - the 74HCT165PW,112 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per Table 5. At 3.3 V, input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V) may be met, but VOH/VOL, propagation delay, and temperature range are not guaranteed, and static current (ICC) may exceed limits due to incomplete transistor turn-on.
Is the exposed pad on the TSSOP16 package electrically connected?
No - the exposed thermal pad on SOT403-1 (TSSOP16) is not electrically connected to any internal node. Per datasheet Section 6.1 and Figure 12, it may remain floating or be connected to GND for thermal improvement, but no electrical function is assigned to it.
How does the CE (clock enable) input affect timing behavior?
When CE is HIGH, CP transitions are ignored - the register holds its state regardless of clock activity. This eliminates metastability risk during clock domain crossing and avoids unintended shifts during system reset or debug halts, unlike simple clock gating which may induce duty-cycle distortion.
