DESCRIPTION

· The NPIC6C596A is an 8-bit serial-in/serial or parallel-out shift register with a storage register and open-drain outputs.
· It features separate clocks for shift and storage registers, a serial input (DS), and a serial output (Q7S) for cascading.
· An asynchronous reset MR input resets both registers when LOW.
· Data shifts on LOW-to-HIGH transitions of SHCP and transfers to the storage register on LOW-to-HIGH transitions of STCP.
· Outputs are driven by extended-drain NMOS transistors when OE is LOW, with OE HIGH causing high-impedance OFF-state.
· Open-drain outputs support 33 V/100 mA continuous current, suitable for LED systems and power driver applications.

FEATURES

· Operates from -40 °C to +125 °C with a wide supply range of 2.3 V to 5.5 V.
· Low R DSon and eight Power EDNMOS transistor outputs supporting 100 mA continuous current.
· Capable of 250 mA current limit and 33 V output clamping voltage.
· Enhanced cascading for multiple stages and all registers cleared with a single input.
· Low power consumption and robust ESD protection: HBM JDS-001 Class 2 exceeds 2500 V, CDM JESD22-C101E exceeds 1000 V.

APPLICATIONS

· LED sign and graphic status panel.
· Fault status indicator.
