1. General description

The 74AHC594; 74AHCT594 is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS device and is pin compatible with

Low-Power Schottky TTL (LSTTL). It is specified in compliance with JEDEC standard No. 7-A.

The 74AHC594; 74AHCT594 is an 8-bit, non-inverting, serial-in, parallel-out shift register that

feeds an 8-bit D-type storage register. Separate clocks (SHCP and STCP) and direct overriding

clears (SHR and STR) are provided on both the shift and storage registers. A serial output (Q7S) is

provided for cascading purposes.

Both the shift and storage register clocks are positive-edge triggered. If the user wishes to connect

both clocks together, the shift register will always be one count pulse ahead of the storage register.
