Where to use SN74LS164 IC

The SN74LS164 is an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out Shift Register. Meaning it can receive (input) data serially and control output pins in parallel. This comes in very handy when we do not have enough GPIO pins on our MCU/MPU to control the required number of outputs. It is often used in projects where relatively a large number of LEDs have to be controlled through the Microcontroller. It can also be used to interface an LCD screen since it can act as the data bit for the LCD displays.

How to Use SN74LS164

The SN74LS164 shift register is commonly used with microcontrollers or microprocessors to expand the GIPO functionalities. The SN74LS164 is a 14-pin IC, it has 4 input pins, 8 output pins, power, and ground. SN74LS164 needs 4 lines of a microcontroller. One for the Clock, one for Clear, and two input pins (A & B). Input Pins A and B work as a logical AND gate, meaning if both pins are logic high (5 volts) then it will read 1. The clear pin is to clear the entire register at once.
