What are the key features of CD74AC299M96G4?

  • 8-bit universal shift register with parallel-in parallel-out, shift-left, shift-right, and hold modes at up to 68 MHz for versatile high-speed data serialization and deserialization
  • Common bidirectional I/O pins reduce pin count and simplify bus-interface routing compared to separate input and output port designs on 8-bit data paths
  • AC-family CMOS logic with 50 pF load capacitance rating in a 20-pin SOIC package, ensuring compatibility with 5 V TTL and CMOS systems while driving moderate bus loads

What is CD74AC299M96G4 used for?

The CD74AC299M96G4 is used in microprocessor and DSP systems for 8-bit data bus expansion, where its parallel-load and serial-shift modes enable simultaneous capture and serial streaming of bus data at 68 MHz clock rates. It serves in FPGA prototyping boards and embedded controller designs requiring bidirectional shift registers for SPI-to-parallel interface bridging. Its hold mode is also valuable in industrial data acquisition systems where input data must be latched and held stable while a downstream processor reads the register contents.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum operating frequency of CD74AC299M96G4 and what clock speed can the host system use?

The CD74AC299M96G4 operates at a maximum frequency of 68 MHz with a 50 pF load, allowing host systems to clock the shift register at up to 68 MHz and still meet setup and hold timing, which is adequate for most 8-bit serial-to-parallel conversion tasks in embedded and DSP designs.

How do the common bidirectional I/O pins of CD74AC299M96G4 benefit a bus-expansion circuit?

Because the 8 data pins serve as both inputs during parallel load and outputs during shift or read operations, the CD74AC299M96G4 can connect directly to a shared 8-bit data bus using only one set of traces, saving up to 8 PCB net connections and simplifying signal routing compared to separate input/output-port shift registers.

Which operating modes does CD74AC299M96G4 support and how do they differ in a data-logging application?

CD74AC299M96G4 supports parallel load (capture 8 bits simultaneously), shift-right, shift-left (serial streaming in either direction), and hold (freeze register contents) modes. In a data logger, parallel load captures a sensor byte atomically, hold preserves it while the MCU reads it over SPI, and shift-right then serializes the byte to a UART—all within one 8-bit register.

Can CD74AC299M96G4 drive standard 5 V TTL inputs directly from a 5 V CMOS supply?

Yes, in the AC family at 5 V supply the CD74AC299M96G4 outputs VOH typically above 4.9 V and VOL below 0.1 V, which are fully compatible with 5 V TTL input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V), and it can drive up to 50 pF loads, covering most PCB trace capacitances at moderate clock speeds.
