CD74HC164M96G4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD74HC164M96G4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency for the CD74HC164M96G4?
  The maximum clock frequency for the CD74HC164M96G4 is 25 MHz, but it can vary depending on the operating voltage and temperature.
• How do I ensure reliable data transfer with the CD74HC164M96G4?
  To ensure reliable data transfer, make sure to meet the setup and hold time requirements, use a stable clock signal, and minimize noise and jitter on the data and clock lines.
• Can I use the CD74HC164M96G4 with a 5V power supply?
  No, the CD74HC164M96G4 is a 2-V to 6-V VCC device, but it is not recommended to operate it at 5V. The recommended operating voltage range is 2V to 3.6V.
• How do I handle the output enable (OE) pin?
  The output enable (OE) pin is active-low, meaning that the outputs are enabled when OE is low and disabled when OE is high. Make sure to connect OE to a valid logic level to avoid output contention.
• What is the propagation delay for the CD74HC164M96G4?
  The propagation delay (tPD) for the CD74HC164M96G4 is typically around 15 ns, but it can vary depending on the operating voltage, temperature, and load capacitance.
