7491 IC 8-Bit Shift Registers DIP-14
The 7491 IC 8-Bit Shift Registers DIP-14 is an 8-bit shift register integrated circuit housed in a 14-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) configuration. It functions primarily as a decade counter, capable of dividing the input frequency by 10, providing binary-coded decimal outputs. This IC features serial-in and serial-out capabilities, enabling the shifting of data bits serially through the register. It supports synchronous operation with a clock input and carries a reset function to clear the count. The 7491 is useful in digital circuits for counting, frequency division, and data storage applications, making it a versatile component in timing and sequencing circuits. Its 14-pin package incorporates all necessary inputs and outputs for interfacing with other TTL logic devices, optimized for use in digital systems requiring stable and reliable 8-bit counting or shifting operations.
Features
- Monolithic 8-bit serial-in, serial-out shift register.
- Utilizes transistor-transistor logic (TTL) circuits.
- Packaged in a 14-pin DIP type for easy integration.
- Data on input pins is clocked into the first register on clock pulse.
- Previous data shifts serially to accommodate new input (FIFO buffer).
- Supports cascaded operation for longer shift registers.
- Operates at a supply voltage of 5 V typical.
- Plastic/Epoxy package body material for durability.
- Terminal pitch of 2.54 mm compatible with standard DIP sockets.
- Suitable for digital circuits requiring data storage, buffering, or serial-to-parallel data conversion.
- Can be used to form buffers, delay lines, or shift registers of varying lengths.
- TTL compatible signals ensure easy interfacing with other logic ICs.
