What are the key features of CD74HC194M?

  • 4-bit bidirectional shift register with serial, parallel, and hold modes for versatile data manipulation
  • 20 MHz maximum clock frequency in HC/UH CMOS family with 50 pF rated load capacitance
  • 16-pin SOIC (R-PDSO-G16) surface-mount package with 2 V to 6 V wide supply range

What is CD74HC194M used for?

The CD74HC194M is used in serial-to-parallel and parallel-to-serial data conversion stages within microcontroller interfaces, FPGA I/O expansion, and digital signal routing circuits. Its bidirectional shift capability and hold mode make it valuable for building ring counters, sequence generators, and rotate-left/rotate-right pipelines in digital control and communications systems. Operating up to 20 MHz from a 2 V to 6 V supply, it fits naturally in mixed-voltage embedded designs requiring both HC-speed performance and low power consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions

What operating modes does the CD74HC194M support beyond simple left or right shifting?

In addition to shift-left and shift-right serial operation, the CD74HC194M supports synchronous parallel load from 4-bit input data and a hold mode that retains the current register contents without a clock transition, providing three functional modes in a single 16-pin SOIC device.

At what maximum clock rate can the CD74HC194M shift data reliably?

The CD74HC194M is rated for a maximum clock frequency of 20 MHz at nominal supply voltage, sufficient for most serial data formatting, stepper-motor sequence control, and parallel bus serialization tasks in embedded systems running at typical microcontroller bus speeds.

How is the CD74HC194M used in a serial-to-parallel data interface design?

In a serial-to-parallel configuration, data is clocked in serially one bit at a time through the shift-right or shift-left input; after 4 clock cycles, all 4 output pins simultaneously reflect the received nibble, enabling the CD74HC194M to convert a serial bit stream to a parallel 4-bit bus for downstream parallel logic or displays.

What supply voltage range does the CD74HC194M accept and does it interface with both 3.3 V and 5 V systems?

The CD74HC194M operates from 2 V to 6 V supply, covering standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic families; at 3.3 V its HC inputs are compatible with LVCMOS outputs, while at 5 V it interfaces directly with legacy TTL and CMOS logic, avoiding external level-translation components in mixed-voltage board designs.
