Product details
Overview
74LV164PW,118 from Nexperia is an 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out CMOS shift register with dual gated serial inputs (DSA, DSB), asynchronous master reset (MR), and edge-triggered clock (CP). It operates from 1.0 V to 5.5 V, delivers propagation delay as low as 12 ns at VCC = 3.3 V/CL = 15 pF, and supports industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C). It is used in LED matrix drivers, address expansion for microcontrollers, and serial-to-parallel data conversion in embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LV164PW,118 datasheet, 74LV164PW,118 pinout, 74LV164PW,118 application, or 74LV164PW,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include supply voltage flexibility (1.0–5.5 V), dual-input gating logic, guaranteed operation up to 125 °C, and TSSOP14 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The device implements a synchronous 8-stage shift register with independent serial data enable logic: either DSA or DSB can serve as an active-HIGH gate for the other input, enabling flexible serial data routing. Its CP input triggers on LOW-to-HIGH transitions, and MR forces all Q0–Q7 outputs LOW asynchronously.
Input clamp diodes allow safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors. The design complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7, JESD8-5, JESD8C, and JESD36 across its full supply range, and meets HBM ESD > 2000 V and CDM > 1000 V per JS-001/JS-002.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Function | 8-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register with gated dual data inputs and asynchronous reset |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 12 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 15 pF - supports ≥70 MHz clock rates in 3.3 V systems |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for extended industrial and under-hood applications |
| Input Logic Compatibility | TTL-level inputs supported at VCC = 2.7 V to 3.6 V - allows mixed-voltage system integration without level shifters |
| ESD Robustness | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - reduces susceptibility to handling damage and board-level transients |

Pinout & Package
TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1): plastic thin shrink small outline, 14 leads, body width 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - DSA | Serial data input A | Primary serial input; gated by DSB when DSB = HIGH - enables conditional data loading |
| 2 - DSB | Serial data input B | Secondary serial input; acts as active-HIGH enable for DSA - provides flexible serial control logic |
| 3 - Q0 | Parallel output 0 | LSB of shifted data; updated on each CP rising edge after reset or shift cycle |
| 4 - Q1 | Parallel output 1 | Second bit of parallel output bus; synchronized to CP edge and MR state |
| 5 - Q2 | Parallel output 2 | Third bit; maintains deterministic timing relationship with CP and MR signals |
| 6 - Q3 | Parallel output 3 | Fourth bit; part of 8-bit contiguous output group Q0–Q7 |
| 7 - GND | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 8 - CP | Clock input | Edge-triggered (LOW-to-HIGH); controls shift timing and output update synchronously |
| 9 - MR | Master reset | Asynchronous active-LOW signal; clears all outputs to LOW regardless of CP or data state |
| 10 - Q4 | Parallel output 4 | Fifth bit; shares same timing and drive strength characteristics as Q0–Q3 |
| 11 - Q5 | Parallel output 5 | Sixth bit; designed for consistent fan-out and capacitive loading behavior |
| 12 - Q6 | Parallel output 6 | Seventh bit; supports simultaneous 8-bit parallel readout after serial load completion |
| 13 - Q7 | Parallel output 7 | MSB of parallel output; completes full 8-bit data word; matches Q0–Q6 electrical specs |
| 14 - VCC | Supply voltage | Positive rail for core and I/O; powers internal logic and output drivers; decoupling required near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| LED Display Driver | Microcontroller I/O Expansion |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 8-segment or 8×8 LED matrices where serial data from MCU must be converted to parallel column/row activation signals. IC Role / Device Role: Serial-to-parallel data converter that buffers and latches incoming bitstream into stable 8-bit parallel outputs for direct LED sink/source control. Use Value: Reduces MCU GPIO usage by 7 pins versus direct parallel connection; supports daisy-chaining for larger displays via Q7 cascade. | Use Scenario: Expanding limited GPIO count on low-pin-count MCUs (e.g., ARM Cortex-M0+, PIC16) to interface with multiple peripherals or sensors. IC Role / Device Role: Parallel output latch that accepts serial configuration commands and holds static I/O states until next update cycle. Use Value: Enables 8 additional digital outputs using only 2 MCU pins (CP + DSA/DSB); MR allows synchronized reset of all expanded I/Os. |
| Industrial Control Bus Interface | Legacy System Protocol Translation |
Use Scenario: Converting serial command streams from PLCs or fieldbus masters into parallel control bits for relay banks, solenoid drivers, or status indicators. IC Role / Device Role: Synchronous shift register acting as protocol bridge between serial control layer and parallel actuator interface layer. Use Value: Provides deterministic timing (12 ns tpd at 3.3 V) and robust noise immunity (clamped inputs, 125 °C rating) in electrically noisy factory environments. | Use Scenario: Adapting older 8-bit parallel peripheral interfaces (e.g., printers, modems) to modern serial-only SoCs or FPGAs. IC Role / Device Role: Bidirectional serial/parallel translator that reconstructs legacy parallel handshaking using MR and CP timing coordination. Use Value: Maintains compatibility with discontinued components while leveraging modern serial interfaces - avoids redesign of entire subsystem. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LV164APWRE4 | TI variant in same TSSOP14 package; identical pinout but slightly higher ICC (max 250 μA vs 160 μA) and wider tpd range (14–29 ns at 3.3 V) | Valid for drop-in replacement where lower quiescent current is not critical; requires verification of reset timing margin due to longer tPHL | Select when TI supply chain alignment is required; confirm layout compatibility with thermal pad absence in SN74LV164APWRE4 |
| 74HC164PW,118 | Nexperia HC version: higher VCC min (2.0 V), faster speed at 5 V (tpd = 12 ns), but no 1.0–1.8 V operation or 125 °C rating | Only suitable for 4.5–5.5 V systems requiring higher speed; excludes battery-powered or wide-VCC applications | Choose only if operating strictly at 5 V and ambient ≤ 85 °C; avoid for low-voltage or extended-temp designs |

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage for guaranteed operation of the 74LV164PW,118?
The 74LV164PW,118 is fully specified and guaranteed functional down to 1.0 V supply voltage, with static characteristics validated from VCC = 1.2 V and dynamic operation confirmed at 1.0 V using GND/VCC-referenced input levels. This enables direct use with 1.2 V and 1.8 V logic domains without level translation.
Can DSA and DSB be used simultaneously for data input?
No - DSA and DSB are logically AND-gated: only one serves as the active data path while the other acts as an enable. When DSB = HIGH, data on DSA is loaded; when DSA = HIGH, data on DSB is loaded. Simultaneous assertion of both inputs does not produce undefined behavior but results in no data shift, as both enables are inactive.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the TSSOP14 package electrically connected?
No - the exposed pad in the SOT402-1 (TSSOP14) package for 74LV164PW,118 is not electrically connected to any internal node. Nexperia documentation explicitly states it has "no electrical or mechanical requirement to solder" and should remain floating or be tied to VCC only if soldered, with no grounding or signal connection permitted.
How does the master reset (MR) interact with the clock (CP) during operation?
MR is asynchronous and dominant: asserting MR LOW immediately forces Q0–Q7 to LOW within tPHL (≤29 ns at 3.3 V), regardless of CP state or timing. MR deassertion (HIGH) does not trigger a shift - the register remains in its last cleared state until the next valid CP rising edge loads new data from DSA or DSB.
