SN74HC166N datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN74HC166N Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the SN74HC166N can handle?
  The maximum clock frequency of the SN74HC166N is 25 MHz, but it can vary depending on the operating voltage and temperature.
• How do I ensure that the data is shifted correctly when using the SN74HC166N?
  To ensure correct data shifting, make sure to clock the device on the rising edge of the clock signal, and ensure that the data is stable before the clock transition.
• Can I use the SN74HC166N as a serial-to-parallel converter?
  Yes, the SN74HC166N can be used as a serial-to-parallel converter by connecting the serial input to the data input and the parallel outputs to the desired output pins.
• What is the maximum capacitance that the SN74HC166N can drive?
  The SN74HC166N can drive up to 50 pF of capacitance on each output pin, but this can vary depending on the operating frequency and voltage.
• How do I reset the SN74HC166N?
  The SN74HC166N has an asynchronous reset input (MR) that can be used to reset the device. When the MR input is low, the device is reset and all outputs are cleared.
