Product details
Overview
M74HC595RM13TR from STMicroelectronics is an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register with output latches and 3-state outputs, designed for digital control expansion in embedded systems. It features dual independent clocks (SCK for shift register, RCK for storage register), asynchronous clear (SCLR), and operates across 2 V to 6 V. Typical fMAX = 59 MHz at VCC = 6 V, ICC ≤ 4 μA at 25 °C, and supports cascading via QH′ serial output - used in LED matrix drivers and GPIO-expansion interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the M74HC595RM13TR datasheet, M74HC595RM13TR pinout, M74HC595RM13TR application, or M74HC595RM13TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its -55/+125 °C operating range, SO16 package, 3-state output enable (G), separate clock domains for shift/storage registers, and compatibility with standard 74-series 595 logic.
Technical Context
The device integrates two synchronous stages: an 8-bit shift register accepting serial data on SI with positive-edge-triggered SCK, and an 8-bit D-type storage register loaded on positive-edge-triggered RCK. The storage register drives eight 3-state outputs (QA–QH), controlled by active-low G. QH′ provides cascaded serial output aligned with the shift register's MSB.
SCLR asynchronously clears the shift register (but not the storage register). Input protection includes HBM ESD rating of 2 kV, and noise immunity is specified as VNIH/VNIL ≥ 28% VCC. Propagation delays are balanced (tPLH ≅ tPHL) and output drive strength is 6 mA (QA–QH) and 4 mA (QH′) at VCC = 4.5 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 6 V - enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level shifting. |
| fMAX | 59 MHz (typ.) at VCC = 6 V - supports high-speed serial loading for real-time display or control updates. |
| IOH/IOL (QA–QH) | ±6 mA (min.) at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to directly drive LEDs or TTL inputs without external buffers. |
| tPLH/tPHL (RCK → Qn) | 13 ns (typ.) at VCC = 6 V, CL = 50 pF - ensures fast latch-to-output response for timing-critical output updates. |
| Operating Temp | -55 °C to +125 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature environments including under-hood automotive subsystems. |
| ESD Rating | HBM: 2 kV - provides robust handling during PCB assembly and field service without additional protection circuitry. |
| Output Enable | Active-low G pin - allows bus sharing and dynamic output isolation in multi-device systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO16 (Small Outline, 16-pin, 300 mil width), RoHS-compliant, ECOPACK® certified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–7, 15 (QA–QH) | Parallel output terminals | 3-state buffered outputs driven by storage register; enabled only when G = low. |
| 9 (QH′) | Serial output | MSB of shift register; enables daisy-chaining multiple M74HC595 devices. |
| 10 (SCLR) | Asynchronous clear input | Active-high reset of shift register only; does not affect stored data in QA–QH. |
| 11 (SCK) | Shift register clock | Positive-edge-triggered; advances SI data into shift register, shifting existing bits left. |
| 12 (RCK) | Storage register clock | Positive-edge-triggered; transfers current shift register contents to QA–QH outputs. |
| 13 (G) | Output enable | Active-low control of QA–QH 3-state drivers; high = high-impedance outputs. |
| 14 (SI) | Serial data input | LSB-first serial data entry point for shift register; synchronized to SCK. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and output drivers. |
| 16 (VCC) | Power supply | Primary DC supply for CMOS logic core and output buffers; must be decoupled locally. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent clocks | SCK and RCK allow asynchronous shift-and-latch operation - e.g., preload data while previous frame displays. |
| 8-bit 3-state outputs | QA–QH can be tri-stated simultaneously via G, enabling shared-bus architectures without contention. |
| Cascadable serial output | QH′ provides bit-aligned serial stream for chaining - eliminates need for external multiplexing in multi-register systems. |
| High noise immunity | VNIH/VNIL ≥ 28% VCC ensures reliable switching in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| Low static power | ICC ≤ 4 μA at 25 °C enables battery-powered or energy-sensitive applications without duty cycling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit shift register with storage latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC595DR | Same logic function and pinout; TI version rated for -40/+85 °C (industrial grade only). | Lacks extended -55/+125 °C qualification and automotive screening; unsuitable for under-hood or military-grade use. | Select if operating ambient stays within -40/+85 °C and cost sensitivity outweighs temperature margin. |
| 74AHC595PW | NXP variant in TSSOP16; higher speed (fMAX = 115 MHz at 5 V) but lower drive (IOL = 8 mA max). | Smaller footprint but reduced thermal margin; requires tighter layout control for EMI-sensitive automotive infotainment. | Choose for space-constrained designs needing >80 MHz update rates, with verified signal integrity at target clock frequency. |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency for reliable operation at 3.3 V?
At VCC = 3.3 V, the datasheet specifies fMAX = 24 MHz (min.) over the full -55/+125 °C range. This value is derived from AC characterization with CL = 50 pF and accounts for worst-case propagation delay and setup/hold margins. Operation above this frequency risks metastability or incomplete data capture in the shift register.
Can M74HC595RM13TR drive standard 5 mm LEDs directly?
Yes - each QA–QH output delivers ≥6 mA sink/source at VCC = 4.5 V, sufficient for typical 5 mm LEDs with forward voltage ≤2.2 V and 10–20 mA nominal current when used with appropriate series resistors. At VCC = 3.3 V, output current drops to ≥4 mA, supporting low-current indicator LEDs.
How does the SCLR pin interact with the storage register?
SCLR only resets the 8-bit shift register to zero; it has no effect on the storage register or QA–QH outputs. Data latched into QA–QH remains unchanged during SCLR assertion, allowing safe clearing of incoming serial data without disrupting currently displayed or driven outputs.
Is there a recommended decoupling capacitor value for VCC?
ST recommends a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to pins 16 (VCC) and 8 (GND), supplemented by a 1–10 μF bulk capacitor near the power entry point. This combination suppresses high-frequency switching noise from output transitions and maintains stable VCC during simultaneous 8-bit output slewing.
