Quiz 5 - Shift Registers - Results
Attempt 1 of 2
Written Nov 8, 2024 11:22 AM - Nov 8, 2024 11:45 AM
Attempt Score - A+
Overall Grade (Average of all Attempts) - A+
Question 1 point
According to the datasheet for the SN74HC595, what is the absolute
maximum continuous current for the entire chip? (i.e. the amount of current
that the entire shift register can handle at any one time - through Vcc or
GND).
Give your answer in mA. Express your answer as a positive whole number (e.g.
123).

Question 3 points
View the Functional diagram (Fig. 1) on page 2 of the NXP datasheet. The
diagram illustrates how a shift register has two intermediary registers - one to
store the inputs and one to store the outputs.
Identify all the pins that control the Input side of the shift register.
Choose all that apply.

Note: the NXP version of the datasheet uses different symbolic names for
SER, SRCLK and RCLK, etc. but all manufacturer's Shift Registers have the
same functionality and pinouts.

Question 4 point
According to the datasheet for the SN74HC595, what is the absolute
maximum continuous output current for an individual I/O pin?
Give your answer in mA. Express your answer as a positive whole number (e.g.
123).
