74HC595N

HGSEMI · Shifting Register · DIP-16

74HC595N from HGSEMI, in a DIP-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 QB tri_state Parallel data output bit B (one of QA~QH 8-bit parallel outputs). Tri-state; driven when output-enable G is low, high-Z when G is high.
2 QC tri_state Parallel data output bit C. Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
3 QD tri_state Parallel data output bit D. Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
4 QE tri_state Parallel data output bit E. Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
5 QF tri_state Parallel data output bit F. Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
6 QG tri_state Parallel data output bit G. Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
7 QH tri_state Parallel data output bit H (last of the 8 latched parallel outputs). Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
8 GND power_in Ground / 0 V reference (电源地).
9 Q'H output Serial data output from the shift register. Used to cascade the serial data to the next 74HC595 (串行数据输出管脚). Not tri-stated; always driven.
10 SCLR input Active-low shift-register clear (asynchronous reset). Drive low to clear the 8-bit shift register (移位寄存器清零端); must be high for normal shift operation.
11 SCK input Shift-register clock input (数据输入时钟端). On the rising edge, data on SER is shifted into the internal 8-bit shift register.
12 RCK input Storage-register (latch) clock (输出存储器锁存时钟端). Rising edge latches the current shift-register contents into the 8-bit output storage register that drives QA~QH.
13 G input Active-low output enable for the QA~QH tri-state parallel outputs (输出使能端). Low = outputs driven; high = outputs high-impedance. Does not affect Q'H.
14 SER input Serial data input (数据输入端). Sampled on the rising edge of SCK and shifted into the LSB of the internal shift register.
15 QA tri_state Parallel data output bit A (first of the QA~QH 8-bit outputs). Tri-state output controlled by G (pin 13).
16 VCC power_in Positive supply, 3.2 V to 6 V (typical 5 V); absolute max 6.5 V. Icc ≤ 5 µA (typical, static) at VCC = 6 V.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
74hc595n.step 505 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
74hc595n-etched.step 2.1 MB You want the part with 74HC595N already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 535 faces against 284 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.
