Product details
Overview
74LV164BQ-Q100 from Nexperia is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register with dual gated data inputs (DSA/DSB), asynchronous master reset (MR), and edge-triggered clock (CP). It operates from 1.0 V to 5.5 V, supports TTL-level inputs at 2.7–3.6 V, and delivers Q0–Q7 outputs with propagation delay as low as 12 ns at 3.3 V/15 pF - used in automotive body control modules for LED matrix expansion and GPIO pin multiplication.
For engineers reviewing the 74LV164BQ-Q100 datasheet, 74LV164BQ-Q100 pinout, 74LV164BQ-Q100 application, or 74LV164BQ-Q100 equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-input gating logic, -40 °C to +125 °C automotive temperature range, DHVQFN14 package with side-wettable flanks for AOI, and guaranteed functionality down to 1.0 V supply voltage.
Technical Context
This shift register implements a synchronous 8-stage right-shift architecture triggered on LOW-to-HIGH CP transitions. Data entry is controlled by the logical AND of DSA and DSB one setup time before the rising clock edge, enabling flexible input enable/disable routing without external logic.
The MR input provides asynchronous active-LOW reset, overriding all other signals to force Q0–Q7 LOW immediately. Its static and dynamic characteristics are fully specified across -40 °C to +125 °C and 1.0 V to 5.5 V, with VIH/VIL thresholds compliant with TTL levels at VCC ≥ 2.7 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register with dual gated data inputs and asynchronous reset |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood automotive applications |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 12 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 15 pF - supports >70 MHz clock operation in high-speed control loops |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level inputs supported at VCC = 2.7 V to 3.6 V - eliminates level-shifter requirement in mixed-voltage systems |
| Output Drive | ±6 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to directly drive LEDs or standard CMOS loads without buffers |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets automotive robustness requirements for assembly and field operation |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN14 (SOT762-1) package: 2.5 × 3.0 × 0.85 mm body, no leads, exposed thermal pad (non-soldered by default), side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection of solder joints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (DSA) | Data input A | Primary serial data input; gated with DSB to form Q0 - tied HIGH if unused to prevent floating |
| 2 (DSB) | Data input B | Secondary serial data input; acts as enable for DSA - both inputs must be connected or unused tied HIGH |
| 3 (Q0) | Stage 0 output | First shifted output; logic AND of DSA and DSB sampled one setup time before CP rising edge |
| 4 (Q1) | Stage 1 output | Second shifted output; value of Q0 after previous CP edge - forms cascaded parallel bus |
| 5 (Q2) | Stage 2 output | Third shifted output - used for multi-bit address latching or segmented display control |
| 6 (Q3) | Stage 3 output | Fourth shifted output - supports 4-bit nibble-aligned readback in diagnostic interfaces |
| 7 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal circuitry and I/O - requires low-inductance PCB connection |
| 8 (CP) | Clock input | Edge-triggered input; data shifts right on LOW-to-HIGH transition - requires clean, monotonic edges |
| 9 (MR) | Master reset | Asynchronous active-LOW reset - forces all Q0–Q7 LOW regardless of CP or data state |
| 10 (Q4) | Stage 4 output | Fifth shifted output - extends parallel bus to full 8-bit width for microcontroller GPIO expansion |
| 11 (Q5) | Stage 5 output | Sixth shifted output - used in sequential lighting patterns or multiplexed sensor addressing |
| 12 (Q6) | Stage 6 output | Seventh shifted output - supports daisy-chained configurations with multiple devices |
| 13 (Q7) | Stage 7 output | Eighth and final shifted output - indicates full register load completion in status monitoring |
| 14 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Positive supply rail; not a signal pin - decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-gated serial inputs | DSA and DSB act as mutual enable/control pair - eliminates external AND gate for conditional data loading |
| Asynchronous master reset | MR forces Q0–Q7 LOW independently of clock timing - ensures deterministic startup and fault recovery |
| Wide voltage operation | Functional from 1.0 V to 5.5 V - supports legacy 5 V systems and modern ultra-low-power 1.2 V domains |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certified - validated for continuous operation at +125 °C ambient in engine control units |
| DHVQFN with side-wettable flanks | SOT762-1 package enables AOI-compatible reflow soldering - reduces post-manufacturing defect escape in automotive PCBAs |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LV164AQPWRQ1 | TI variant with identical pinout and function but different ESD ratings (HBM > 4000 V) and wider VCC range (1.65 V to 5.5 V) | Preferred where higher HBM robustness is required beyond AEC-Q100 baseline; lacks side-wettable flanks | Select when board-level ESD stress exceeds 2 kV or when tighter VCC min (1.65 V vs. 1.0 V) is acceptable |
| 74LVC164BQ-Q100 | Nexperia LVC variant with same package and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating, but higher drive strength (±24 mA) and narrower VCC range (1.65 V to 3.6 V) | Better suited for driving heavier capacitive loads or longer traces, but incompatible with 1.0–1.65 V or 4.5–5.5 V supplies | Select when output current >6 mA is needed and system VCC is constrained to 1.65–3.6 V |
Compared with SN74LV164AQPWRQ1, the 74LV164BQ-Q100 offers lower minimum supply voltage (1.0 V vs. 1.65 V) and AOI-enabled packaging, while the 74LVC164BQ-Q100 trades voltage flexibility for higher output drive - making the LV version optimal for ultra-low-voltage automotive subsystems requiring assured manufacturability.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage at which 74LV164BQ-Q100 guarantees functional operation?
The device is guaranteed to operate down to 1.0 V supply voltage, with static characteristics fully specified from 1.2 V, and functional behavior confirmed at 1.0 V using GND/VCC-referenced input levels. This enables compatibility with emerging ultra-low-power automotive subsystems and cold-crank scenarios where VCC dips below 1.2 V.
How should unused DSA or DSB pins be terminated?
An unused DSA or DSB input must be tied HIGH (to VCC) to prevent floating states that could cause unpredictable Q0 behavior. Both inputs may also be connected together to share a single data source - the internal logic requires at least one input held HIGH to enable data entry through the other.
Does the DHVQFN14 package require soldering of the exposed thermal pad?
No - the thermal pad (pin 1 index area) has no electrical or mechanical requirement to be soldered. If soldered, it must remain electrically floating or be connected to VCC; grounding the pad is not recommended and may affect thermal performance or signal integrity.
Can 74LV164BQ-Q100 be used in daisy-chained configurations?
Yes - Q7 output can be connected to DSA/DSB of a downstream device to form a 16-bit (or longer) shift chain. The propagation delay (≤12 ns at 3.3 V) and setup/hold timing margins support reliable multi-device cascading at clock frequencies up to 70 MHz under nominal conditions.
