74HC165PW

Nexperia · Shifting Register · TSSOP-16

74HC165PW from Nexperia, in a TSSOP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 PL input Asynchronous parallel load input (active LOW). When PL is LOW, data from D0-D7 is loaded into the shift register asynchronously; when HIGH, data enters serially at DS on rising CP edges.
2 CP input Clock input, LOW-to-HIGH edge-triggered. Serial data is shifted on rising edges when CE is LOW and PL is HIGH. Max fmax typically 51 MHz at VCC=4.5 V.
3 D4 input Parallel data input bit 4. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q4 when PL is asserted LOW.
4 D5 input Parallel data input bit 5. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q5 when PL is asserted LOW.
5 D6 input Parallel data input bit 6. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q6 when PL is asserted LOW.
6 D7 input Parallel data input bit 7 (last stage). Loaded into internal shift register stage Q7 when PL is asserted LOW and appears at Q7 output.
7 Q7 output Complementary (inverted) serial output from the last shift-register stage. Provides logical complement of Q7.
8 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V).
9 Q7 output Serial output from the last stage of the shift register. Cascade this pin to DS of a downstream 74HC165 for wider registers.
10 DS input Serial data input. Sampled on the LOW-to-HIGH CP edge when CE is LOW and PL is HIGH; drives the first register stage.
11 D0 input Parallel data input bit 0. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q0 when PL is asserted LOW.
12 D1 input Parallel data input bit 1. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q1 when PL is asserted LOW.
13 D2 input Parallel data input bit 2. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q2 when PL is asserted LOW.
14 D3 input Parallel data input bit 3. Loaded into internal shift register stage Q3 when PL is asserted LOW.
15 CE input Clock enable input (active LOW). When CE is LOW, data is shifted on CP rising edges; when HIGH, CP is disabled and the register holds its state.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage. 2.0 V to 6.0 V for 74HC165; 4.5 V to 5.5 V for 74HCT165.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
74hc165pw.step 205 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
74hc165pw-etched.step 2.1 MB You want the part with 74HC165PW already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 529 faces against 255 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
