The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. 74LS164 8-bit shift registers feature gated serial inputs and an asynchronous clear. The gated serial inputs (A and B) permit complete control over incoming data as a low at either input inhibits entry of the new data and resets the first flip-flop to the low level at the next clock pulse.

Applications

  • The shift registers are used for temporary data storage.
  • The shift registers are also used for data transfer and data manipulation.
  • The serial-in serial-out and parallel-in parallel-out shift registers are used to produce time delay to digital circuits.
