CD74HCT164E datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD74HCT164E Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the CD74HCT164E can handle?
  The CD74HCT164E can handle clock frequencies up to 30 MHz.
• How do I ensure that the CD74HCT164E is properly powered?
  The CD74HCT164E requires a power supply voltage (VCC) of 4.5V to 5.5V, and it is recommended to use a decoupling capacitor of 0.1uF to 1uF between VCC and GND to ensure proper power supply decoupling.
• What is the maximum input voltage that the CD74HCT164E can tolerate?
  The CD74HCT164E can tolerate input voltages up to 7V without damage, but it is recommended to keep input voltages within the specified operating range of 0V to VCC to ensure proper operation.
• How do I handle the asynchronous reset input (CLR) of the CD74HCT164E?
  The CLR input should be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor (e.g., 1kΩ) to ensure that the device is not inadvertently reset. When CLR is low, the device is reset, and all outputs are set to low.
• What is the propagation delay of the CD74HCT164E?
  The propagation delay of the CD74HCT164E is typically around 10ns to 20ns, depending on the operating conditions and load capacitance.
