The maximum clock frequency for the 74HC164N is 25 MHz, but it can vary depending on the operating voltage and load conditions.
Yes, the 74HC164N can be used as a shift register with a microcontroller. It can be used to expand the number of I/O pins available on the microcontroller or to reduce the number of I/O pins required for a particular application.
The main difference between the 74HC164N and the 74HC165N is the direction of data shifting. The 74HC164N is a parallel-in/serial-out shift register, while the 74HC165N is a parallel-in/parallel-out shift register.
Yes, the 74HC652 can be used as a level translator. It can translate voltage levels between 2.0 V and 5.5 V, making it suitable for use in mixed-voltage systems.
The propagation delay for the 74HC652 is typically around 10 ns, but it can vary depending on the operating voltage and temperature.
