GN595D from GN Semic, in a SOP-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 | Q1 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 1 of the storage register. Drives up to +/-6 mA at Vcc=4.5 V. High-impedance when G is high. |
| 2 | Q2 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 2 of the storage register. Same drive characteristics as the other QN outputs; high-Z when G is high. |
| 3 | Q3 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 3 of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 4 | Q4 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 4 of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 5 | Q5 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 5 of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 6 | Q6 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 6 of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 7 | Q7 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 7 (MSB) of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V) for the device. |
| 9 | Q7' | output | Serial data output from the last (8th) stage of the shift register. Used to cascade multiple GN595D devices to build longer shift chains; not affected by the output-enable G. |
| 10 | SCLR | input | Active-low shift-register clear. When held low, all shift-register bits are reset to 0 (Q7' = 0); does not affect the storage-register outputs. |
| 11 | SCK | input | Shift-register (data-input) clock. On a rising edge, SER is shifted into the shift register (QN = QN-1, Q0 = SER). Rated to typ. 91 MHz at Vcc=4.5 V, 108 MHz at Vcc=6 V. |
| 12 | RCK | input | Storage-register (output latch) clock. A rising edge latches the shift-register contents into the storage register, updating Q0-Q7. |
| 13 | G | input | Active-low output enable for the parallel outputs Q0-Q7. When high, Q0-Q7 are placed in the high-impedance state; when low, storage-register contents drive the outputs. |
| 14 | SER | input | Serial data input. Sampled on the rising edge of SCK and shifted into bit 0 of the shift register. |
| 15 | Q0 | tri_state | Parallel 3-state output bit 0 (LSB) of the storage register. High-Z when G is high. |
| 16 | Vcc | power_in | Positive supply, 2 V to 6 V (absolute max 7 V). Bypass locally with a ceramic capacitor (typ. 100 nF) to GND. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 485 faces against 267 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.
