SN74LS164DR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-14. 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 | A | input | Gated serial data input A. ANDed internally with serial input B to drive the first flip-flop's D input; either input held low inhibits new-data entry and forces the first stage low at the next clock edge. Diode-clamped LSTTL input, VIH >= 2 V, VIL <= 0.8 V. |
| 2 | B | input | Gated serial data input B. ANDed internally with serial input A; a high level here enables input A to determine the next state of the first flip-flop. Diode-clamped LSTTL input. |
| 3 | QA | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage A (first stage). Totem-pole LSTTL output, VOH >= 2.7 V @ IOH = -0.4 mA, VOL <= 0.5 V @ IOL = 8 mA. |
| 4 | QB | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage B. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 5 | QC | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage C. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 6 | QD | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage D. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 7 | GND | power_in | Ground / 0 V reference for the device. |
| 8 | CLK | input | Clock input. Data at the serial inputs is shifted one stage on the low-to-high transition; clock frequency 0-25 MHz (36 MHz typical). Minimum pulse width tw = 20 ns; setup 15 ns, hold 5 ns. |
| 9 | CLR | input | Active-low asynchronous clear. Driving CLR low forces all Q outputs low independent of CLK; must be held high (with tsu(clear inactive) >= 20 ns before next clock edge) for normal shift operation. |
| 10 | QE | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage E. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 11 | QF | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage F. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 12 | QG | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage G. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 13 | QH | output | Parallel output of shift-register stage H (last stage). Also functions as the serial output when cascading devices. Totem-pole LSTTL output. |
| 14 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply, 4.75 V to 5.25 V (5 V nominal) for SN74LS164. Recommended bypass with 0.1 uF to GND close to the pin. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 607 faces against 237 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.
