Nexperia · Shift Registers · DHVQFN-16-EP(2.5x3.5)

74HC595BQ from Nexperia, in a DHVQFN-16-EP(2.5x3.5). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 Q1 tri_state Parallel data output Q1; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
2 Q2 tri_state Parallel data output Q2; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
3 Q3 tri_state Parallel data output Q3; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
4 Q4 tri_state Parallel data output Q4; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
5 Q5 tri_state Parallel data output Q5; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
6 Q6 tri_state Parallel data output Q6; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
7 Q7 tri_state Parallel data output Q7; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
8 GND power_in Ground (0 V) reference for all voltages on the device.
9 Q7S output Serial data output used to cascade devices; it is not controlled by OE.
10 MR input Master reset, active LOW; a LOW clears only the shift register and does not affect the storage register.
11 SHCP input Shift register clock; data is shifted in on LOW-to-HIGH transitions.
12 STCP input Storage register clock; a LOW-to-HIGH transition transfers the shift register contents to the storage register.
13 OE input Output enable, active LOW; a HIGH forces Qn outputs to high-impedance without changing register contents.
14 DS input Serial data input to shift register stage 0.
15 Q0 tri_state Parallel data output Q0; goes high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
16 VCC power_in Supply voltage: 2.0 V to 6.0 V for 74HC595 (4.5 V to 5.5 V for 74HCT595) per recommended operating conditions.
17 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: 74HC595BQ
  • Footprint: Package_DFN_QFN:DHVQFN-16-1EP_2.5x3.5mm_P0.5mm_EP1x2mm
  • 3D model: DHVQFN-16-EP(2.5x3.5), generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 0.9 mm nominal VQFN height). Neither the vendor nor KiCad ships a 3D model for this package, so the dimensions are nominal, not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
  • 3D model files: 74hc595bq-etched.step / 74hc595bq-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); 74hc595bq.step / 74hc595bq.glb are the bare package body.

Courtyard: why each corner steps twice

The footprint's courtyard (F.CrtYd, from KiCad's footprint generator) is the union of three rectangles, each grown by 0.25 mm. The body itself is a plain 2.5 x 3.5 mm rectangle (the F.Fab outline).

To see it, switch on the Fab (F.Fab) and Courtyard layers in the PCB Footprint viewer above. The body rectangle's corners stick out past both pad groups, and the courtyard wraps each one.

Feature x extent (mm) y extent (mm)
Side pad rows (pins 2-7, 10-15) +/-1.85 +/-1.625
Package body, 2.5 x 3.5 +/-1.50 +/-2.00
End pads (pins 1, 8, 9, 16) +/-0.625 +/-2.35

The pads overhang the body by 0.35 mm on all four sides, as QFN toe lands do. So the body is wider than the end-pad pair and taller than the side pad rows, and its corner at (1.50, 2.00) lies outside both pad envelopes: the side rows stop at y 1.625, the end pads at x 0.625. Each corner therefore steps side pads (x 1.85) -> body (x 1.50) -> end pads (x 0.625), two steps. The union is 20 vertices and matches the footprint's 20 courtyard segments exactly.

A pads-only outline has one step per corner (12 vertices) but leaves the body corner uncovered. A single step per corner is only possible by growing the courtyard about 0.35 x 0.37 mm at each corner: either the side-pad edge runs down to y 2.0, or the end-pad edge widens to x 1.5. The current outline is the tightest one that covers both body and pads. (Checked 2026-10-16 for the 74HC595 domino molecule, adom/molecule-74hc595bq.)
