Product Overview: SN74LV165ADGVR by Texas Instruments

The SN74LV165ADGVR is a high-performance, 8-bit parallel-load shift register designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments, a leader in semiconductor solutions. This integrated circuit (IC) is part of the 74LV family, which operates at a low voltage and with low power consumption, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, including portable devices, data acquisition systems, and digital signal processing.

Constructed with advanced CMOS technology, the SN74LV165ADGVR offers robust functionality with a 2-V to 5.5-V V<sub>CC operating voltage range. It is designed to support the serial output of an 8-bit binary word. This is achieved by shifting the data on the positive-going transitions of the clock input while the clock inhibit signal is held at a low level.

The device features a direct clear input which, when taken low, resets the internal register to a low state. This is particularly useful in applications that require a quick reset function without the need to cycle through the entire shift register. The parallel load inputs are latched on a low-to-high transition of the shift/load (SH/LD) input.

Key features of the SN74LV165ADGVR include:

• Support for parallel or serial output
• Wide operating voltage range (2 V to 5.5 V)
• Low power consumption
• Direct overriding clear
• High on-chip output drive capability
• Schmitt-trigger action at all inputs, making the circuit tolerant to slower input rise and fall times

This shift register comes in a compact TVSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) form factor, designated by the DGVR suffix in the product name. The TVSOP package is ideal for applications where space is at a premium, and high-density mounting is required.

Overall, the SN74LV165ADGVR is a versatile and reliable component for digital systems that require high-speed, low-power serial-to-parallel data conversion. Its ease of use, combined with Texas Instruments' reputation for quality, makes it a preferred choice for engineers and designers across various industries.
