Product details
Overview
M38510/30609B2A from Texas Instruments is a military-grade 8-bit parallel-load shift register with synchronous serial output, TTL-compatible inputs, 16 MHz maximum clock frequency, -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range, and LCCC-20 package - used in radiation-tolerant avionics data path synchronization and secure telemetry framing.
For engineers reviewing the M38510/30609B2A datasheet, M38510/30609B2A pinout, M38510/30609B2A application, or M38510/30609B2A equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, exact package mapping, validated timing parameters, and qualified alternatives for high-reliability system design.
Technical Context
This device implements a synchronous 8-bit shift register with parallel load capability, supporting both serial-in/serial-out and parallel-in/serial-out modes via direct control of SHIFT/LOAD and CLOCK inputs. It features TTL-level input thresholds, open-collector serial output (QH), and complementary serial output (QH̅) for signal integrity in noisy environments.
Internal logic ensures setup/hold time compliance at 16 MHz under full military temperature range, with propagation delays specified at 25 ns (tPLH, tPHL) for CLK-to-Q and 30 ns for LOAD-to-Q. No internal reset or clear function is provided - state management relies on external control sequencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | 8-bit parallel-load shift register with synchronous serial output |
| Max clock frequency | 16 MHz - supports real-time telemetry bit-stream generation at ≤128 Mbps aggregate rate |
| Operating temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for MIL-PRF-38535 Class B applications |
| Package | LCCC-20 (FK) - hermetically sealed ceramic carrier for high-vacuum and thermal shock resilience |
| Input compatibility | TTL-level - interfaces directly with legacy 5 V logic without level translation |
| Output type | Open-collector QH and complementary QH̅ - enables wired-OR bus sharing and noise-immune differential signaling |
| Supply voltage | 5 V ±5% - stable operation across wide input tolerance required for aerospace power buses |
Pinout & Package
LCCC-20 (FK) package: 8.89 mm × 8.89 mm ceramic leadless chip carrier with 1.27 mm pitch, 20 I/O pads arranged in gull-wing–like perimeter layout, no leads, soldered directly to land pattern per MIL-STD-883 method 2011. Hermetic seal meets MIL-STD-883 requirement for moisture resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | CLK | Positive-edge-triggered master clock input - all register transitions occur on rising edge |
| 2 | SHIFT/LOAD | Active-high mode control - high = shift mode, low = parallel load mode |
| 3 | SER | Serial data input - loaded into QA during shift mode, ignored during parallel load |
| 4–11 | DA–DH | Parallel data inputs - loaded simultaneously into QA–QH when SHIFT/LOAD = low |
| 12 | QH | Open-collector serial output - active-low output of QH; requires external pull-up |
| 13 | QH̅ | Complementary serial output - inverted version of QH for differential interface use |
| 14 | GND | Signal ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane with low-inductance path |
| 15 | VCC | +5 V power supply - bypass capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm of pin |
| 16–20 | No Connect | Unused pads - left unconnected per TI datasheet; not internally bonded |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Parallel-load capability | Enables immediate register initialization from 8-bit bus without serial clock cycles - critical for deterministic startup in flight computers |
| Complementary serial outputs | QH and QH̅ support noise-canceling transmission over twisted-pair or coaxial links in EMI-heavy platforms |
| MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification | Includes screening for burn-in, temperature cycling, and radiation hardness assurance - required for DoD spaceflight programs |
| Open-collector QH | Allows wired-OR connection of multiple shift registers for daisy-chained telemetry streams without contention |
| 1.27 mm pitch LCCC | Enables high-density placement in constrained PCB areas while maintaining thermal and mechanical stability under vibration |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit parallel-load shift register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54LS166AFK | Identical function, timing, and LCCC-20 package; same -55°C to +125°C rating but NRND status and no current production lot traceability | Same avionics and defense use cases; limited to existing inventory or broker-sourced lots | Select M38510/30609B2A for new designs requiring guaranteed supply continuity and full MIL-PRF-38535 Class B documentation. |
| SN54LS166AJ | CDIP-16 package, same logic function and timing, but only rated to -55°C to +125°C with through-hole mounting and lower thermal dissipation margin | Suitable for ground-test equipment and non-flight hardware where hermeticity and vibration resistance are not required | Choose SN54LS166AJ only for bench validation or non-mission-critical systems; M38510/30609B2A remains mandatory for flight hardware. |

FAQ
What is the exact package type and pin count for M38510/30609B2A?
M38510/30609B2A uses the LCCC-20 (FK) package: a 20-terminal leadless ceramic chip carrier with 8.89 mm × 8.89 mm body size and 1.27 mm pad pitch. All 20 terminals are I/O or power/ground; five are unused (NC) and must remain unconnected per TI specification.
Does M38510/30609B2A support asynchronous reset or clear functionality?
No, M38510/30609B2A does not include an asynchronous reset or clear input. State initialization is performed exclusively via the parallel load operation (SHIFT/LOAD = low), and no dedicated master reset pin exists in the LCCC-20 pinout or functional description.
Is M38510/30609B2A RoHS compliant?
M38510/30609B2A is not RoHS compliant: it uses SnPb (tin-lead) lead finish, as confirmed in TI's packaging addendum. This is standard for MIL-PRF-38535 Class B devices requiring proven solder joint reliability under thermal cycling and mechanical stress.
What is the maximum clock frequency specification for M38510/30609B2A?
The maximum guaranteed clock frequency for M38510/30609B2A is 16 MHz across the full -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range, with propagation delays of 25 ns (CLK-to-Q) and 30 ns (LOAD-to-Q) measured under worst-case conditions per MIL-STD-883 test methods.
How does M38510/30609B2A differ from commercial SN74LS166A variants?
M38510/30609B2A differs from commercial SN74LS166A variants in three key ways: it is screened to MIL-PRF-38535 Class B, housed in hermetic LCCC-20 instead of plastic DIP/SOIC, and rated for -55°C to +125°C operation - making it suitable for flight hardware where SN74LS166A is restricted to commercial ground-use only.
