used 74LS595 chips as our SIPO shift registers and 74LS597 chips for PISO. LS series chips are obsoltete. We recommend using a current set of chips, such as the 74HCT595 and 74HCT597 or equivalent. |
inverting the RCLK signal. |
inverting the RCLK signal with an inverter, like the 7404. Pin names on the chips may be different than as shown. On a current datasheet I see the following names: STCP = Storage Register Clock, I referred to as 'Latch', formerly 'RCLK' SHCP = Shift register clock, formerly 'SRClock' DS = Serial data Input, formerly 'Ser' PL = Parallel Load, formerly 'SRLoad' Other pins such as Output Enable and Reset should be tied high or low as appropriate. |
