Working Principles

The SN74AHCT595PW operates based on the principle of serial-in, parallel-out shifting. It receives data serially through the SER pin and shifts it into the shift register upon each rising edge of the SRCLK input. The data is then stored in the storage register upon a rising edge of the SRG input. The parallel outputs reflect the stored data and can be accessed simultaneously.
