General Description
The MM74HC595 high speed shift register utilizes advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology. This device possesses the high noise immunity and low power consumption of standard CMOS integrated circuits, as well as the ability to drive 15 LS-TTL loads.
This device contains an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register that feeds an 8-bit D-type storage register. The storage register has 8 3-STATE outputs. Separate clocks are provided for both the shift register and the storage register.
The shift register has a direct-overriding clear, serial input, and serial output (standard) pins for cascading. Both the shift register and storage register use positive-edge triggered clocks. If both clocks are connected together, the shift register state will always be one clock pulse ahead of
the storage register.
The 74HC logic family is speed, function, and pin-out compatible with the standard 74LS logic family. All inputs are protected from damage due to static discharge by internal diode clamps to VCC and ground.
Pin Configuration

Pin Number | Pin Name | Description |
1,2,3,4,5,6,7 | Output Pins (Q1 to Q7) | parallel data output |
8 | Ground | Connected to the Ground of the circuit |
9 | Q7 | serial data output |
10 | (MR) Master Reset | master reset (active LOW) |
11 | (SH_CP) Clock | This is the clock pin to which the clock signal has to be provided from MCU/MPU |
12 | (ST_CP) Latch | The Latch pin is used to update the data to the output pins. It is active high |
13 | (OE) Output Enable | The Output Enable is used to turn off the outputs. Must be held low for normal operation |
14 | (DS) Serial Data | This is the pin to which data is sent, based on which the 8 outputs are controlled |
15 | (Q0) Output | The first output pin. |
16 | Vcc | This pin powers the IC, typically +5V is used. |
