INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Shift Register

A sequential logic circuit that stores and shifts binary data in industrial control systems.

Component Specifications

Definition
A shift register is a digital integrated circuit that stores binary data and can shift it left or right through a series of flip-flops. In industrial applications, it's used for data serialization, parallel-to-serial conversion, timing control, and temporary storage in protocol engines and automation controllers.
Working Principle
Operates using clock signals to synchronize data movement through cascaded flip-flops. Each clock pulse shifts stored bits by one position, enabling sequential data processing, buffering, and pattern generation in industrial communication protocols.
Materials
Semiconductor silicon with CMOS/TTL technology, encapsulated in plastic (e.g., DIP, SOIC packages) with gold/copper lead frames.
Technical Parameters
  • Bit_Width 4-bit to 64-bit
  • Package_Type DIP-16, SOIC-16, TSSOP-16
  • Supply_Voltage 3.3V or 5V DC
  • Clock_Frequency Up to 100 MHz
  • Operating_Temperature -40°C to +85°C
Standards
ISO 13849, IEC 61131, DIN 19237
